New maps in Git:

Online/geogratis.gc.ca/
    National.geo
    Regional.geo
    Sub_national.geo
    Sub_regional.geo

Online/nationalmap.gov/
    Aerial.geo
    Contours.geo
    Hydrography.geo
    ShadedRelief.geo
    Topo1-10.geo
    TopoRelief1-7.geo
    Transportation.geo

Note that the 1-7 and 1-10 refer to zoom levels at which they'll work, so
zoom in pretty close for those two maps. Enjoy! I particularly like
Aerial.geo at zoom 1.
