How should Layton be memorialized?

[El Barto]

The new Champlain bridge they need to build in Montreal should be the thing.

 

[Machjo]

Or should he at all. And where? Why Toronto? Why not?

If you care enough, tell the Star.


I say enough with the thing already but for those that are suffering and require a cathartic civic release, do a park, library or a food bank.

Naming streets after dead yahoos or celebrity schmucks ain't for me.

He's already been memorialized enough. Give him rest already.

I got the impression Jack was the sort of guy who would be satisfied with a simple grave marker and kind thoughts. Who really wants a memorial for pigeons to poop on?

His funeral is quite enjoyable to watch.I have a new found respect for the man.

A good successor and government in the next election would be nice. But, renaming something might be easier.

Less socialism in Canada would be a good way of remembering Jack.

Let's not get all emotional and destroy the nation because of the death of one man........

And have you LOOKED at the possible replacements??

Turmel makes Duceppe look like a federalist.

Davies is a leftist looney, admireable only for her amusement factor.

Mulcair is a conspiracy theorist.....does he live in his mother's basement???

All crazy....just a matter of degree.

The Liberals will be Her Majesty's Loyal Opposition next time.....if they can annoint a leader with a three digit IQ.

The NDP will return to their much-deserved third party status.

The CPC will gain seats.

The CPC will gain seats.

Not if you're its spokesperson....

If we remove politics, I guess a good way of remembering Jack would be to ride a bicycle to work.
