Take this area in Saskatchewan for example: http://osm.org/go/Wk7dy_x-- A pristine area, not sullied by those nasty imports, which chase away the avid OSM enthusiast looking for pristine areas of blank canvas upon which to tag their cartographic masterpiece. CanVec data is available in this area, but no one has taken up the challenge of manually verifying and vetting the process of moving data from CanVec to the OSM database. As Andrew pointed out, it is far less daunting to go in and tweak a road, add more data points to a shore line, or add a POI to an existing area than it is to be faced with an absolutely blank screen.
