We have an arena downtown - not a stadium. It's not about one facility, it's about creating critcal mass. There are a lot of factors that have contributed to the decline of the downtown, so using Copps as an example soley on it's own merit is not really fair. After Copps was built, we lost to many other valuable pieces of the puzzle over the past 20+ years (Eaton's, the closing of the Connaught, the closing of the 'indepdendent' movie theatres, Robinsons being turned into a parking lot, Zellers being turned into a parking lot) and there has been nothing positive to replace such institutions. Something has to be the catalyst.
