I've searched but can't seem to find anything that has POI's for Canadian Postal Codes and/or
American Zip codes ?

Anything appreciated

Peter

The coding is part of the map, not a poi set.

Besides, the postal codes for Canada essentially do not work since you can only search on ANA where the real PC has ANA NAN. Renders the search pretty much useless.

If you want to Navigate to an American zip code, do Navigate to -> Address -> Zip Code. You need to pick a road and house number after that.

As DHN said, the canadian zip codes are missing a few digits, and therefore not usable.
