No one outside of Canada would tag a road as belonging to the Canadian National Highway System. You are raising a strawman argument by comparing it to maxspeed, which is used in more than one country. In any case, this is not the appropriate list to engage in an extended discussion as to if a Canadian government classification has any value for OSM and should not distract from the other points raised in this thread. _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
