flag Ontario’s aging recreation facilities need $45.1 billion in upgrades, with many over 50 years old and in poor condition.

flag Aging recreation facilities across Ontario, including Chatham-Kent’s Erickson and Memorial Arenas, are in urgent need of repair or replacement, with over 2,700 facilities requiring an estimated $45.1 billion in upgrades. flag Many structures are over 50 years old and rated fair to poor, reflecting a provincial crisis exacerbated by declining funding and rising costs. flag Chatham-Kent’s $160 million project to build a new complex by 2035 highlights broader challenges, as municipalities struggle with heavy financial burdens and limited support. flag Experts stress that public investment in recreation supports community well-being, even when individuals don’t use the facilities directly.
