(...) Unfortunate this Region has had very little vision when it comes to investing in spectator sport in our area.

I fixed that for you. The cities in the region have invested--and continue to invest--in sports and fitness facilities for residents (which does provide stuff for people to do). What they have not done is spend money on stadiums for pro/semi-pro teams to play and residents to sit in the stands and watch. But, then, there have not been any teams looking for such a facility in recent memory anyway.

Mind you, Kitchener did expand the Aud seating capacity by 1,000 in 2012, so they are not completely opposed to such spending.
