I think the idea is not to replace existing OSM data. Therefore the import
should be able to insert only new data. I do not think we should exclude
areas. We should detect the changes instead. Richard proposed to start
where osm data is not present. I agree with him.

Both BC and NS have significant areas that have been mapped,
specifically around Victoria, Vancouver and Halifax. Is the data going
to be cut with a bounding box to exclude those areas? Are we just
going to wipe out existing mapping?
