the postal data in Geocoder is particularly accurate.
You can help, by improving geocoder.ca with the address information

Hey Russell / all,
I performed a rudimentary test of an address in the map without a postal
code and later used the Nominatim to search for it to see what it produced.
The address was 27 Cairo Street in St. John's, NL - I used this because it

Hi Folks,
I've created a new mapping task for the Ottawa area [1]. I really want to
make our local map super awesome:) I see adding buildings as one of the

Hi Folks,
Thanks so much for the great feedback!
