especially local mappers merely decided what should be done? <br>
<br>
I seem to recall Danny and others are known to be more open to
discussion after being fed their second cup of coffee.<br>
<br>
Would you like to open a discussion on the matter?<br>
<br>
Are we taking into account old fogies who might be used to seeing this
information or are you suggesting we reeducate them?<br>
<br>
Just as a point of reference I have been living in Ontario since before
1990 by the way.<br>
<br>
Changing things is expensive as I've already said recently.<br>
<br>
Thanks <br>

<div dir="auto">These exit “names” I’ve been long seeing all around
Ontario as well as parts of Quebec are map clutter, often duplicates
those tagged as ramp destinations, and also creates a false impression
these provinces have different tagging guidelines for highway exits from
the rest of Canada as well as our neighbours stateside. Add to the
problem is the usual Ontarian way of referring to exits as “[road
name/destination] exit” instead of “exit [number]” due to historical
factors (Ontario didn’t have exit numbering until around the late 90s);
Québécois also has similar usage (being “la sortie [destination/road]”
in French), so the thing in Ontario is also what I’m seeing in parts of
Quebec (though Quebec has been long using exit numbers since the first
autoroutes were built). Earlier in this thread, such “names” (take for
example <span style="border-color:rgb(0,0,0)">“Highway 26/Bayfield
Street exit” for Highway 400 exit 98 in Barrie) </span>has been
considered a description and as such, references to those “names” should
be all mopped up.</div>
