Bruno, what you  present correspond to the present situation like I indicated 
in my last mail that came at same time as yours.
We could also have an administrative boundary relation =8 to describe Quebec 
city limits. This is very helpfull to search into cities. I have done that for 
Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu using data from Statistic Canada. We should obtain 
better information from government of Quebec in the next year.


For example, with Nominatim, I can search rue Jacques-Cartier, 
Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu.

But if I search Rue Grande Allee, Quebec, I cannot find it. Only a street in 
Montreal is reported.
