John, these aren't my fish to fry; this endeavor belongs primarily to Canadian OSM volunteers with optimistic attitudes who have the courage to envision a finish line of mighty and pride-inspiring results into existence. Being encouraging, my feeling is it IS possible to reach consensus across Canada. It might be rough going at first, it might seem like the iterative process is taxing or even exhausting at times (especially early on in the project, as it is now), yet patience, the realization that when you bite off a nationwide data importation you'll have to chew (and chew and chew and chew...) before you can swallow a bit and recognize some important milestone of progress, but I am 100% certain Canada can and will get there. It is already in the process of doing so, and while "sausage making can be a mess!" I'm sure there are many who look forward to delicious results. Be heartened and courageous, be optimistic and visionary. If or as you don't, others will (and already have). Keep up the good work, everybody!
