Yes, that would be very useful.

Most buildings in Ottawa are wheelchair accessible do you want them tagged as such, we also have a tag for toilets:wheelchair<http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:toilets:wheelchair> which means States if a location has a wheelchair accessible toilet or not.  I think this might be useful to map anyway.

Hello everyone,

Here is what we would invite Canadians to tell us about buildings for OSM:

name
Address:
·         Number
·         street
·         city
·         postal code
levels
office, shop
type of access (handicap, etc.)

If there is a way to categorize them as residential, non-residential that would be perfect.

What do you think? Anything else we should add?
