Maybe we look at volume and connectivity to higher orders of road and/or
connectivity to other municipalities as the criteria?
In some areas these will also happen to be former provincial highways (ex:
parts of former Hwy 7, parts of former Hwy 10/Hurontario, Main St
(Hamilton), etc.) while
What Jarek says makes sense to me. I suspect many of the map users don't
live where the use the map.
Having said that could we come up with something that could be applied
across Canada or is that too much to ask for?
Thanks John

Perhaps we make some standards for the heavily urbanised areas of Ontario

Hey Andrew,
I'm in agreement with Justin. I think it's too urban a road, with urban
speed limits along almost its entire length and many traffic lights. I
definitely wouldn't consider the part of Yonge through downtown Toronto (or
most of Toronto for that matter) to be Primary, with truck
In Canada, highway=primary is typically used for what I would call
"highway-like" roads.[0] IMHO, Yonge is a "major" road, but has too many
cross streets to be really considered highway-like, at least for most of
