1. I suggest the name be Handjob Way in honour of jack.

2. I remember Jack for transforming a rub n tug into a community clinic…

3. Just another example of the amoral secular left canonizing their politicians because they worship government/political theories/partisan politics rather than pursue true spiritual/civil values.
   Hollow people hold hollow values and I can’t think of anything more ethically disordered than making a deity out of a crass political careerist and pathological hypocrite.
   It tells me that most people inside the current political system can’t tell a statesman (worthy of praise for his leadership and civil service) from a common political fixer – they are probably one and the same to the superficial opportunists in the partisan political cult.

4. So, how many ‘Rub & Tug’s’ on the street?

5. Oh to come up with a street name that would combine elements of his name and a tug…hmmm……….

6. This road, of course, leads to the last place on record our government killed a citizen.

7. You can’t make these things up!
   “The Don Jail Roadway was officially named Jack Layton Way”

8. I can’t help but look at that sign and wonder why they stopped short at including the “a” in “Way” – big space savings there!
   On the other hand it’s just perfect for the man it represents: something’s odd and not quite right. For him it was a screw that was loose.

9. Bingo!

10. TO finally does something right. The best since Ottawa mayor Charlotte Whitton named the road to the sewage treatment plant after Controller Paul Tardif.

11. Althought the street sign would be quite large, my vote is for “But Officer, I am Here For the Shiatsu Expressway”

12. You got to admit though, someone pulled a fast one (oops, giggly pun) in naming a prison road after a politician.

13. At least it is not East Jack Layton Way.
    mike

14. E.Jack U. Layton Way.
    slippery when wet or employed as a politician.

15. Is it a one-way street, heading out of town?

16. This is terrible. How could they have possibly forgotten the bicycle lane on Jack Layton Way?

17. The best one for me is The Harold Holt Swim Centre, named after the 17th PM of Australia, whose term was brought to an early and dramatic end in December 1967 when he disappeared while swimming at Cheviot Beach near Portsea, Victoria, and was presumed drowned.

18. Bangkok Boulevard…..?
