[Talk-ca] Accident map of Montreal - using OSM data + MapBox

[Harald Kliems]

Side note: Looks like the Mapbox renderer uses an algorithm that
shortens common parts of street names, like "Boulevard" to "Blvd" or
"Crescent" to "Cr". Which in Montreal leads to funny things like "Rue
Cr" and "The Blvd"...

 Harald.
