The collapse of the contract between the city and Plasco Energy Group is a
disappointment, because this was a promising Ottawa company and the solution it
offered for getting rid of garbage was just what Ottawa needed. The Plasco deal
didn’t work out, but the city was correct to give the company a chance to show
what it could do. If Canadians don’t support their own tech companies, who will?
The deal was also structured in such a way that the cost and the risk were on
Plasco’s side. All the city lost by giving Plasco a chance was some time. via
