If the source of data in jeopardy is CanVec do we need to remove it given
that there are no issues with CanVec data being in OSM?

Yes because it is the individual contributor who has to accept the OSM's
new licensing terms, the data was not imported directly from CANVEC into
OSM.
As a Canadian tax payer I'm not quite certain I like the idea of OSM having
the power to re-license Government data but that is a separate issue.

Yes. All tags may be modified. That's the point of OSM data; it is a

will be correctly tagged or even entered but one hopes that over time on
average the map will be refined to a better state.
