Hi Nick, The geocoder already returns multiple results for ambiguous queries. Note that the .geocode() method calls back with an array of GeocoderResponse structs: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/v3/reference.html#Geocoder I'll file a bug internally to check why "Halifax, Canada" is not returned. Note that maps.google.com (which uses the same geocoding database) also returns just Halifax, England: http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Halifax
