Just like the US system is really four letters (LAX is actually KLAX and BWI is actually KBWI), so is Canada's. The first letter is always C and most of the first airports got Y as their second letter. Victoria is CYYJ, Vancouver is CYVR and Toronoto is CYYZ... but God's River, Manitoba is CZGI and Melville, Saskatchewan is CXEK.
