Oh god so I'm not the only one struggling with this. I also work for a municipality, right now we are just pulling assessment parcels matched with postal codes in AMANDA and just joining them. It's fucking ugly and terrible but the only other thing would be to pay for it (Like Environics). I get asked for this pull every now and then from our Economic Development department and I don't know if they just forget what I said last month but it's frustrating to constantly tell them NO More on reddit.com

January 23, 2024ggmaps and Canadian Postal Codes
I did something similar to this a few months ago using some clinical data.
I can't remember exactly how I did it, but I recall making a separate table with the shape IDs and a column called colour with gradient for 1-whatever based on the number of colours you want.
I merged the shapefile .dbf and the new table, added 0s to the empty values in the colour column then fortified the resulting table.
You can then create a palette with specific colours that match the numbers you gave each polygon group and make 0 = white/grey and it should produce what you want.
This requires a bit of manual work on Excel, so I'm not sure if this is what you'd want to do. Sorry I don't have a very definitive answer !!

June 6, 2012TIL that Canada reserves the postal code "H0H 0H0" for letters addressed to Santa.
As a Canadian, whenever I see posts like these I think "How could you not know this?" but then I think how it's so common to us we don't even think of it as being a thing of note. More on reddit.com

First, a small vent. I think it’s ridiculous that postal code datasets are proprietary. This should be open data, like every other administrative boundary in the country. Canada Post trying to turn a profit is gross. It straddles a strange line between a crown corporation and a private organization…
Secondly, I’m curious how y’all get your postal code datasets? I work for a small municipality. We currently have a pretty convoluted workflow that takes a land ownership table, cross-references the owner’s full address with the parcel address to extract the postal code to the parcel, remove outliers like owners who don’t live in their house, dissolve the parcel boundaries together where the code matches…There must be a better way?
As I understand it, the postal code lookup website also has functions to block you from simply running a script to scrape their data en masse, so I know that’s not an option…

We buy the Postal Code polygon boundaries for our municipality from Environics (quarterly deliveries) and intersect our address points with them. As a proof of concept, we also paid Canada Post for their AddressComplete API and query addresses that way, but I’ve found it to be very hit or miss and the rules I’ve had to write are getting complicated. We were hoping this would fill the gap between the quarterly polygon downloads, but it hasn’t been worth it.

April 12, 2004 - These exceptions are for government addresses only; all households and private businesses in Gatineau have postal codes beginning with J. Note that the use of K1A for all government offices in Ottawa-Gatineau means a department can be moved between Ontario and Québec without changing its postal code. (Thanks to Stan Jones of the Yarmouth Stroke Project in Nova Scotia for this information.) Software that wants to identify the province or territory based on the first letter must take these exceptions into account. ... Nunavut was carved out of the Northwest Territories in 1999, as you know. This seems to have taken Canada Post somewhat by surprise, as there didn't seem to be a cohesive plan for gving Nunavut its own postal identity.
