Let's name the Detroit-Windsor bridge for Gordie Howe

This is an excellent idea: Let's name the new Detroit-Windsor international bridge in honour of Mr. Hockey, Gordie Howe.
Howe, born in Canada, starred for the Red Wings for 25 years and retired to Traverse City, Mich. Detroit (aka Hockeytown) loves the sport; Canadians love the sport. It's a bridge (pun intended) between Ontario and Michigan cultures.
The idea to name the new bridge for Mr. Hockey should have wings with this story in the Toronto Star.
