Re: [Talk-ca] Open Database of Buildings / Base de données ouvertes sur les immeubles

We were actually talking about that on the osmcanada slack channel this morning. If we wanted to use said data it would have to be evaluated city by city not as a whole data source. There are providers(Ottawa, Yellowknife, Montreal for example) that are already pretty well mapped in OSM where
