Canada does not have "zip" codes. Canada uses a "postal code" system.

A postal code contains three letters and three single digit numbers. First there is a letter, followed by a single digit number, followed by a letter. Then there is a space. Following the space is a single digit number, followed by a letter, followed by a single digit number.

The genius of the postal code is that it allows mail to be sorted right to the individual street block or, in many cases, right to the individual building. As such, the Province of Ontario would have hundreds of thousands, perhaps over a million postal codes.

All postal codes in Ontario, Canada, begin with the letters K, L, M, N, or P. Postal codes beginning with M are exclusively within the city of Toronto.
