Hi John,

is "Épinettes Avenue" in English since 2014.

Dont look hard for an Explaination why they keep the french article, 
we are talking about a city that has Forest instead of Fôrest. 
There's also Des Aubépines that keeps the é.

Canada Post recognises 375 DES EPINETTES AVE ORLEANS ON   K1E
3E6 as an English address.

Until very recently this would also be the address in
OpenStreetMap and used by the city.

There is a by-law that says what the differences are.

Has something changed recently?

Many thanks John

That should screw up a few search engines when people try to look up the
postal addresses from Canada post which are different.

Thanks John

Here's the info I have:

From: "Young, Erin" 
To: Addressing And Signs 
Date: Wed, 10 Dec 2014 14:35:00 +

*City of Ottawa - Notice of Street Name Corrections – Effective 
immediately*


**

The Director of Building Code Services, under delegated authority 
granted by By-law 2014-78, approved corrections to the spelling of 
five street names. These names were missing accents, articles or 
hyphens or had incorrect capitalization. These changes are part of the 
City’s Street Name Verification Project, one of the post-amalgamation 
initiatives to resolve street name anomalies.


Please make the necessary changes to your records to reflect the 
corrected street names as they appear in the table below, in 
accordance with the language format used.
