Alright, here is an example shot of the raw address interpolation ways
after my conversion routine brings them in from the StatCan shape files:

You'll notice that the roads are quite misaligned from the OSM mapped
roads, and in some cases the geometry is quite off.
Here's how I've been cleaning them up:

I'm using a combination of the existing OSM mapped data, and the yahoo
aerial imagery to get a feel for where to start and end the address
interpolation ways.
Really it's just moving things around and aligning it up nicely. This is
just the left-side interpolation ways; I need to get the right side added
in for these areas as well.
I've posted a copy of the script I'm using here:
