<p><font size="+1">I've noticed that most of the agricultural fair
grounds are tagged as theme parks. Was this a CanVec thing? Most
of these could never really be described as a theme park:
Markham Fair Ground is basically a field with a pavilion.
ExPlace struggles for a theme: 11 months of the year it's
clearly pointless desolation (along with football=lousy ;-) ),
and for the other one it's just cuisine=ill_advised.</font></p>
<p><font size="+1">For me, Canada's Wonderland is a theme park. So
is Disneyland. So is Silver Dollar City*. But most of the
tourism=theme_park areas I've found in Canada are ag fair
grounds. <br>

<p><font size="+1">Better tagging might be difficult. There's the
little-used "amenity=show_grounds", a failed proposal from a few
years back. Suggestions welcomed.<br>

<p><font size="+1">*: if you're ever in southern MO during the
summer, you should go. It's ridiculous hokey fun, but it doesn't
care. The drive across the Ozark Mountain Highroad is
spectacular.<br>
