I suggest you don't use a mixture of upper and lower case in your tags. There are some issues around tag naming and whether they should be case sensitive or not. OSM mostly uses lower case in all keys and values (of course proper names etc. should be done in their proper cases :-) I also suggest not using spaces or special characters in keys and values. Makes it easier to handle (again, this is only for identifier type things, not for proper names and so on). I haven't looked at all the details, but how about instead of CanVec:Theme=Buildings and structures (BS) just use canvec:theme=bs If canvec consistently uses upper case, then canvec:THEME=BS might be better. I generally think that you should keep as much as possible to the original classification, naming, etc. in the canvec: namespace. This will make it easier to compare the two datasets (especially when they change later). The easy readability and usability will come from the translation into the "normal" OSM tags. I realize that some of what I have said contradicts itself. Nobody ever said this was easy. Thanks for all the work you put in there. It is really coming along well!
