[Talk-ca] importing geobase data for the Canadian boarder

[Michel Gilbert]

The example pointed at is Geobase admin boundaries. If you look at the
attributes you'll see it comes from Geobase. The resolution may not be what
you expect but it is the best we have for now. Of course we may edit them to
share the coast.
