McKnight Trail, MacLeod Trail, Bannister Road, and James McKevitt Ave are some I can think of. Not sure what the most recent one would be.

Wasn't 8th Street named after our 22nd Prime Minister?

There's a better chance that Nenshi will change his last name to Iginla than rename 12th ave. With the property tax increases businesses have been hit with in Calgary as of late it would be political suicide.
I love the idea myself and couldn't happen to a more deserving person. For Iginla and Nenshi.

Exactly. This guy was a sports star . Not like Iggy cur3d polio. He is no Jonas Edward Salk or Edward Jenner.
I get he is an awesome guy and did alot for kid sport but we need a little perspective.

If they build the new arena in Vic park they should rename 12th east of mac trail.

This. And it’s not without precedent — 4 Street SE “magically” turns into Olympic Way south of 12 Ave so no reason why you couldn’t just apply it east of Macleod instead of the entire Beltline..

No offence, but Lanny should get that honor before Iggy.
Even better, done at the same time would be pretty sweet.
