cela ressemble a des menaces. Bon, il y a de meilleures façons de motiver les 
communautés locales.

Hi!

A week ago I wrote this email and nobody answered it yet. Does that
mean that nobody feels responsible for the import that created this data
and nobody here cares for this data?

I see three ways forward:
* We do nothing. The broken data stays in OSM. Not a good solution,
  because every user of the data has to work around this or handle the
  complaints.
* The Canadian community steps up and fixes the data, automatically or
  manually.
* We ask the Data Working Group to remove the broken import.
