I should clarify my comment below that in some places the "local road 
name" is "Trans-Canada Highway".


I think it would be helpful if you split out your proposal province by 
province.  Provincial governments are generally responsible for 
highways (including the TCH), so the naming is consistent only within 
a province.  Please review
