I agree with Jarek, St. should generally not be expanded for English
Canadian street names.  The proper spelling is St. (or St) even if the
pronunciation is Saint.  name:pronunciation (
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:name:pronunciation) is a tag that
can capture the pronunciation, if desired.

In Quebec, I believe it is different, and St often is expanded.
