Thanks for the information. My concern is less that I can't validate against the Google Maps API, but more that many valid Canadian Postal Codes do no reside in the Google Maps API system. For example: T9E 0H5 works fine on mapquest, but isn't valid with Google Maps API. Is there a long delay in getting these updated? My alternative of course is to just use the first 3 letters of the postal code with the API but this website requires a little more precision if possible.
