The Globe and Mail did a brilliant interactive on congestion in Toronto. Take a look at it.
The Globe not only mapped out traffic data, it also had readers submit their traffic grievances and placed it on a map. There may not be too many mapped responses, but it's a really good idea for having a discussion on one of the most relevant concerns of Torontonians.
To boot, they made it searchable by location. More importantly, they've linked to the raw data. This allows for further collaboration by those outside the news organization.
The Star has a number of similar maps too. The crime ones are particularly important, and the area one helps locate the numerous boroughs that make up the city.
