OK, the particular spot I was concerned about for misalignment was above 
Alexandria Bay. It's a little neighbourhood off Ch. Lattion, including 
R. de la Spartan, R. de la Lobo, and R. de la Cortland. CanVec shows R. 
de la Sparta running further north and another street or two coming off 
it. One of us really needs to run a GPS trace through there.

Further west a number of the streets are lacking names.

Surely you'll need CanVec, if only to get the administrative boundaries 
of Gatineau. Is the region broken down into sub-regions, so Aylmer 
continues to exist?

I'll add that I know how to get CanVec as images in JOSM, but I don't 
know how to get the encoded data.
