[Talk-ca] Avoiding data redundancy

I've been looking into data in Ottawa(this is one of many cities that do
this) and a lot of addresses/buildings have "addr:city" and I even get
"addr:province" and "addr:country".

Seeing as there are boundary polygons for Ottawa, Ontario and Canada. I
think to reduce data redundancy these should be removed. Of course I am not
talking about villages like Kuujjuaq where there isn't a administrative
border, but in cities that do have one.

What do you think?
