I did create a MapRoulette challenge to review these named junction nodes for 
the United States just now. See 
https://maproulette.org/mr3/challenge/3253/task/5881462 
<https://maproulette.org/mr3/challenge/3253/task/5881462>. If you find it 
useful I’d be happy to create one for Canada as well. Or show you how you can 
do it yourself.
