[Talk-ca] Importing buildings in Canada

I've done a number of building imports using no square shapes with no
problem. JOSM is set to open up new tasks in a separate layer which avoid
the problem of having task loading next the the just closed task. (I'm
doing the imports in the US using voting districts. Each district typically
has about 200-250 houses. None of them are ever square. Perfect for an
import.)

Best,
Clifford
