size=2 face=Arial>there is so much thing to map that conventional data producer
can't afford. Furthermore, many of you have seen that data from such producer
(including us ;-) are not error free - even if I can guaranty that we are doing
our best. So, even if all the Canvec data is ever imported, it might
still be updated, modified and corrected to represent what is really seen
on the field!</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

started adding shops along Broadway, Vancouver before I left. Often places such
