So, to update this bug report the SystemD init system periodically tried to
start up the "snap.canonical-livepatch.canonical-livepatchd.service" and at
some point around Feb 24th, 21:53 UTC time, it started working:
Code:
Feb 24 03:03:56 ip-10-0-16-09 /usr/bin/snap[5967]: cmd.go:111: DEBUG:
restarting into "/snap/core/current/usr/bin/snap"
Feb 24 03:03:56 ip-10-0-16-09 snap[5967]: 2017/02/24 03:03:56 Only Ubuntu 16.04
LTS is supported, exiting.

I have NFI what caused it to start working, neither the apt history or "snap
changes" show anything being updated around that time:
Code:

Once the service was running, I was able to validate the key using the
"canonical-livepatch enable ...." command and everything is working as
expected.
It's still a bit of a mystery as to what caused it to start working.
Maybe something changed server side on the Ubuntu Livepatch servers?
Maybe there was some kind of "cached" OS version value that needed to be
cleared?
Either way, will update the bug ticket and this thread can (probably?)
be marked as resolved, though the resolution is basically "wait and
it'll come right".
