[Talk-ca] What Google Copying?

[Adam Dunn]

Found another example near Valemount, BC, where NRN has a road called
Blackman Road (east of a certain road) and Lheureux (west of certain road).
Bing has called the road Chevreux. vreimer got it correct, meaning he's not
copying Bing either. It's all so mysterious....
