The issue here is that Brampton replaced it's incompatible license (mostly), with CC-BY 4.0, which needs an explicit waiver and there currently isn't one.

Hence why Kevin suggested using the data from StatsCan

For what it’s worth, I requested a review of Niagara’s licence from the LWG and it was approved at their next meeting; I suspect this one would also be a (fairly) quick approval if the only change is the name of the municipality.

Many Thanks, it's always better to review these things first.

Hey John,

The addresses are in the StatsCan data, as when I ran Peel's open data they informed me they were pulling out addresses from our site for their program.

If they pulled Peel's I don't see why they'd pull Brampton's separately since Peel covers Brampton.

So they can use the SC addresses as a source but not Brampton's since OSM LWG considers the city's name changing in the license to be a new license.

    Does anyone know if the license works or if the data can be
    pulled in from stats canada?

    Thanks John
