Dear Daniel, Congratulations! Thank you for acting as our interface with NRCan. It has been a pleasure to meet you and discuss data over the last few years. We look forward to your changesets in the St. Johns area. :-) merci beaucoup!

Ordinarily, I would expect "unclassified" to mean "we don't know enough abut this object." But in OSM, highway=unclassified means "this is a low importance road and it is not exclusively residential". > Nicolas should work on it next week.

Wonderful. We look forward to hearing more from François and Nicolas.
