I think we need to review this on an almost case by case basis. I've been working to clean up vreimer data in Winnipeg. He was responsible for mapping large areas of Winnipeg. Looking at the data, and comparing it to Canvec, Bing, etc its pretty clear he must have sourced the data somewhere else. In these cases I've been removing his data entirely and replacing it with CanVec data which has been improved using Bing. However, that said, it IS a very laborious process, and there's still large areas to go. I know there's still a load of Vreimer data in Western MB, but for the most part I think its safe to let that go and replace with Canvec. I DO agree with you though, there are some roads in Winnipeg where he's touched them since they were created, having made only minor tagging changes. It seems a shame to have to recreate this data.
