[Talk-ca] Street addressing in the rest of the Regional District of Nanaimo

[Kevin Farrugia]

Can't recall if I pointed you in this direction last time, but StatsCan
compiled open address data from multiple levels of government and released
under their license: https://www.statcan.gc.ca/en/lode/databases/oda

Might be worth taking a look and seeing if they have what you're looking
for.
