Good news! Kingston, ON has figured out how to best honour their favourite children, the Tragically Hip.

City councillors have voted to name a block of Barrack Street after them. The vote only won by one, though—it was a seven to six in favour of. Yikes! The resistance could have been because of some residents’ earlier concerns that the renaming might be a slight to Kingson’s military history.

Part of it will now be known as Tragically Hip Way. How do you like them Road Apples, Kingston? [via Toronto Star]
