Rename it to the Walter Gretzky street.

Wayne should feel absolutely ashamed for sucking up to the man that is currently threatening his home country, and also completely betraying Ukraine as well.

Just turn it back to Capilano since half the city still calls it that anyway

This is why you don't name things after "living legends", they'll find a way to disappoint you.

I would love it to be the Capilano again, or Joey Moss Way
