Zend_Validate_PostCode is validating invalid postal codes as defined by Canada Post.
Locale: en_CA

For Example
"A0D 1A1" is invalid, but Zend_Validate_PostCode treats is as a success.

Reasoning:
the Letters D, F, I, O, Q, U are not valid in a postal code in any location.
Additionally, the letters W, Z are not currently used as an initial character

Example Code
$pc = new Zend_Validate_PostCode(array('locale'=>'en_CA'));
var_dump($pc->isValid('A1D1A1'));

Expected Result
bool(false)

Actual Result
bool(true)

"The alphabetic characters, D, F, I, O, Q, U, are not in use at the present time." StatsCan PCCF Reference Guide, p 32.
