[Talk-ca] Hutterite colonies

[Jherome Miguel]

And back on topic,I can agree with place=hamlet or landuse=residential for
most on mapping Old Order German Anabaptist communities (not just Hutterite
or Bruderhof), but in the case of most Hutterite settlements such as those
in the Prairies, which are mostly farms, place=farm is the most appropriate
(in Alberta, place=hamlet would generally be used to some small
unincorporated community smaller than a village and directly administered
by a municipal district, and designated as such under provincial law.)
