I was importing the boundary for E.C. Manning Prov Park and Cascades Recreation Area, which have so far been missing on OSM, when I realized that British Columbia was spelled wrong in English. This misspelling is right in the original shape file from <a href="http://geogratis.cgdi.gc.ca/geogratis/en/collection/detail.do?id=BA8D1149-7714-EC04-343B-6AFEC3BDA84A">http://geogratis.cgdi.gc.ca/geogratis/en/collection/detail.do?id=BA8D1149-7714-EC04-343B-6AFEC3BDA84A</a><br>
<br>This misspelling (u versus the second o) is a common mistake made when confusing the spelling of the Canadian province with the spelling of the South American country or the English versus French spellings. This appears to affect every protected area imported from that file into OSM.<br>
<br>The country:<br>English: Colombia<br>French: Colombie<br><br>The province:<br>English: British Columbia (note the u)<br>French: Colombie-Britannique (note the o)<br><br>What GeoGratis has:<br>PROV_EN=British Colombia (note the incorrect o)<br>
PROV_FR=Colombie-Britannique (this is correct)<br><br>Adam<br>
