The streams feeding into the Crowsnest River are really inaccurate and incomplete. Can we use the Geogratis data set BNDT 1:50,000 produced by Government of Canada? How do I upload them?

That data is of horrible quality. Don't do it.
It's much better, IMHO, to trace from satellite imagery. Yes it takes more time. I've done some rivers that way, and over time we'll get a quality job done. -

Viajero, I appreciate your response. Unfortunately tracing from aerials is not an option in the Crowsnest Pass and will likely never be. The creeks run through thick forest and you can't see them in aerials. Take a look at Star Creek for example. (Stream Number 27384952). There is another 16km of that creek past where it is shown to end in OSM. If you were to trace it, you'd be guessing most of the time.

Comment from pbcnp
is there an automated way to just add the tails that are not there now? I could download the existing OSM data into JOSM, show it with the Geogratis data, subtract the two and only upload what isn't there... that would make the info more accurate than what is there now, no?

Any automated edits would have to follow the Automated Edits Code of Conduct (https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Automated_Edits_code_of_conduct) - they're really not for the faint-hearted because it's very easy to screw things up. I wouldn't recommend it. But your editor may allow you to load shapefiles and to bring the geometries through to the map one-by-one, carefully making sure they're tagged correctly and that they join up with existing features where appropriate.
