Personally, I'd rather be honoured (from an aesthetic perspective) by a beautiful bridge designed by one of the world's greatest architects spanning the gorgeous Bow River than say a highway which soldiers are often honoured by. I think soldiers will be proud. I am also glad Memorial Drive was finally fixed up, much to the chagrin of the penny pinchers in town, who didn't think it was 'worth it'. We should honour soldiers with the best of what the city has to offer.
The Highway of Heroes - the 401 in Ontario.
