Please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_postal_codes_in_Canada
The advantage of this plugin is you can set your own postage areas (Postcode areas), costs, limits (weight, price, number of articles etc) all on one Virtuemart Shipping method.
The plugin uses a simple comma separated list pasted in the text area to configure the method.
On this test site I have configured 3 zones that cover all Canadian postcodes.
Try Yukon codes like Y1A 1C2 or Toronto like M4N 2K5
Minor debugging is on so you can see what is happening.
