In an interview today I mentioned the difference of opinion between Treasury Board and Canada Post about the disposition of postal code data. "The Ottawa Citizen ran a story in which I'm quoted about a fight between Treasury Board and Canada Post officials over making postal code data open. Treasury Board officials would love to add it to data.gc.ca while Canada post officials are, to put it mildly, deeply opposed." I am with Treasury Board on this one - postal code data should be openly accessible.
