Free bulk Canuck geocoding?

MashupFilter: Where can I find a free online service to geocode Canadian street addresses from (and to) a .CSV file à la Map Builder?
I have a .CSV file with 100 names and street addresses of public libraries in Toronto, each of which requires lat/long data to be useful.
Map Builder seemed to be the perfect solution, except the geocoding service it uses chokes on Canadian addresses.
I don't need a full duplicate of all the services available at Map Builder, as long as I can pull my data back out (with lat/long) in CSV format.
Do any of you fine MiFi folks have exprience with this kind of issue?

http://geocoder.ca/ does geocoding for Canadian addresses, but I'm not sure about doing lists in bulk. It has an API though.

Here it is. It has several links in there claiming to do something like that or similar.
