After Canadian Ambassador risked their life to save American hostages in Iran, after fighting side by side with us and coming to our aid in wars after 911, we treat our best friends in the world with a complete slap in the face, for doing nothing wrong, for no reason. I'm so so sorry, Canada

Does anyone have good experience using the US National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) dataset? I'm contemplating translating it into GeoParquet to make it easier to download portions of it. But it's got a ton of tables in the GeoPackage - do people use all of those? Or is there a key subset?
