3. It is a zip code.
4. its the same as a zip code, its a number, primarily used in mailing to help designate the location.
5. just a zip code
6. It routes the package to the correct destination, CA has a letter/number system, probably for different provinces, counties, cities, etc..
7. A postal code in Canada is like a zipcode in the US. It's for sorting mail. http://www.crtc.gc.ca/dcs/eng/glossary.htm - here's an answer from this link. "They are codes used by postal services to divide large geographic areas into discrete zones in order to simplify delivery. In Canada, postal codes are six-character strings structured in the alphanumeric format Letter/Number/Letter; full space; Number/Letter/Number—for example, A1A 1A1" Good luck! =)
8. it is used to get exact location. first two number has a region.... like a state. then the next number has a more specific region, like a city, then etc. good luck
9. It is like a zip code. It consist of 6 digits, example X3X 3X3. The last 3 digits make the code specific to a few houses on a street within a city. It assists in getting mail to its destination. I don't believe this is a real postal code, but this is the format they follow.
10. Americans have zip codes ...canada we are a different country and our addresses use postal codes
