*City of Ottawa - Notice of Street Name Corrections – Effective
immediately*
**
The Director of Building Code Services, under delegated authority
granted by By-law 2014-78, approved corrections to the spelling of
five street names. These names were missing accents, articles or
hyphens or had incorrect capitalization. These changes are part of the
City’s Street Name Verification Project, one of the post-amalgamation
initiatives to resolve street name anomalies.
Please make the necessary changes to your records to reflect the
corrected street names as they appear in the table below, in
accordance with the language format used.

Dont look hard for an Explaination why they keep the french article,

There's also Des Aubépines that keeps the é.....

There seems to be some confusion over the English version and
French versions of the street names.
Canada Post recognises 375 DES EPINETTES AVE ORLEANS ON K1E
3E6 as an English address.
Until very recently this would also be the address in
OpenStreetMap and used by the city.
There is a by-law that says what the differences are.
Has something changed recently?
Many thanks John
