If StatsCan is going to gather more than the just building data under the same
licence, that would be sweet! The other data sets from Airdrie it would be
nice to import, eventually, are address points, neighbourhood and quadrant
boundaries, park benches and picnic tables, and city maintained
Thanks for that update on the current status of the building import! I've
checked the Stats Canada site, and they do indeed have the up-to-date building
data from Airdrie (although stripped of the height and elevation tags). I seem

I'd check to see if it is included in the Stats Canada data first. If not
then the buildings will be available in the Microsoft data which is
correctly licensed.
The open data licenses are a mine field.
Stats is looking a releasing more municipal Open Data under the Federal
Government license.
ODBL also has the annoying part where the data has to be fully licensed by
the data provider: if city buys data from 3rd party and they still retain
rights on it, then it becomes a problem

latter is the OSM license). I don't think something like "permission
for use in OpenStreetMap" would be sufficient, as the OSM licensing is
intended to also
If I can obtain explicit permission from the city, would I still need to
wait for the LWG approval?
