Hi J.P.

This sounds reasonable. Do we have a map that shows which areas of the province are French area vs English area. For us non-NBers. Or I suppose one could guess by looking at the existing tags there. (I would assume Fredericton is English area?) If we have a list then could update the NB wiki page. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/New_Brunswick

I live in NB but haven't been involved in tagging these particular signs. While mapping street 
names, I tend to use "name=x Street" and "name:fr=Rue x" in English-speaking 
areas of the province, with the opposite in French areas. I see no reason we can't do something 
similar with destination signs, even if the double-colon may look unwieldy.

After all it is, officially, "Regent Street" in English and "Rue Regent" in French, not 
"Rue Regent Street" in both.
