Canadian Postal Code Database
Finding a Free US Zip Code => city/state/longitude/latitude database was not a problem, they were everywhere.
However I'm having troubles finding a Canadian one. Does anyone know where I can download a FREE Canadian Postal Code database?

Set Search Time - A google chrome extension. When you search only results from the past year (or set time period) are displayed. Helps tremendously when using new technologies to avoid outdated results.
I googled extensively when I was looking for Canada's and I saw databases of hundreds of countries (surely India was included) available for subscription.anjanesh wrote:And Im looking for India's. I guess only US has provided their db to the public.
Is there a way to get the lats and longs of zipcodes using google earth ?
I am just too cheap to pay for one

Err I can't seem to find the page I was looking for, but this page seems quite similar.

I'm not sure if databases are available there.

I think Canada Post is selling a db.

Just to reconfirm...
You cannot download a freely available database of Postal Codes for Canada. It doesn't exist - i've looked and contacted CPost about it.
I'm not sure if you could create your own - which I thought of doing, using their postal code maps and a lat/long plotter, but that's probably copyright infringment.
Your basically stuck having to pay the $$$ for their database
