New street names for Iqaluit

I’ve been thinking.

Maybe we should rethink our system of street names, to reflect life in Iqaluit more realistically. Here are some obvious suggestions.

The roads themselves:

* Pothole Street
* Crevasse Creek
* Abyss Avenue
* Corrugated Trail
* Moonscape Drive

The effects on the cars:

* Thump Street
* Shock Smash Lane
* Crunch Parkway
* Rattle Corner
* Shatter Crescent

The effects on the drivers:

* Ouch Street
* Aaaagghh Avenue
* Desperation Gulch
* Expletive Expressway
* Bankruptcy Boulevard

And finally, in honour of the only people who will be able to afford Christmas in Thailand this year.

The effects on those who serve us:

* Avenue of the Delighted Mechanics
