That's what this OSM project is all about. People getting out there and gathering data that is available for everyone to use. CanVec and GeoBase are shortcuts that we have permission to use, but we should still do our due diligence and ensure the information that we are importing is accurate by verifying the information with real world boots on the ground verification.
