List of unused highways in Canada

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

For the same reasons as Articles for deletion/List of abandoned highways in the United States. Predominantly WP:OR issues with references to google maps satellite images. The only properly referenced content is the definition of an Unused highway which should belong in that article anyhow. Ajf773 (talk) 10:16, 27 December 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete This list is entirely WP:OR, each entry being "sourced" to satellite imagery. Most of the document sources refer to highways in the United States. There is no indication that unused highways in Canada are necessarily actually still highways - the list may thus include highways, former highways, and road sections that were never highways. There is no way to tell because the sources aren't present. Also fails WP:GNG, no indication that unused highways in Canada are notable as a collective entity.--Pontificalibus 11:05, 27 December 2018 (UTC)
