| .CA Domain Names As a rule, all Canadian-based online business organizations have to acquire a domain name or website address with the suffix ".ca" on it. ".ca" domain names would mean that the location of the domain is in Canada. Canada has established strict rules in domain name registration partly because it has seen the economic value of online business entities for the country. The rules are also imposed to prevent commercial-related domain anomalies from occurring. After all, the possibility for irregularities in business domain transactions would be higher if there are no guidelines to serve as safety nets in the online business industry. The first provision in the registration of .ca domain names is the formal submission of to-be released domain names in CIRA's (Canadian Internet Registration Authority) website. The second provision in .ca registrations is that CIRA has the sole authority to cancel a domain name application. There are three possible reasons for the cancellation of an application. One reason would be the failure of the applicant to comply and submit pre-registeration documents. Another reason would be the applicant's utilization of the agency's networking resources without proper permission or authorization. Finally, the third reason involves the possible conflict of CIRA policy administration that may arise, due to the processing of the application. Once the domain name has been approved by CIRA, the domain name would immediately be listed in CIRA's records. For registered domain names that have expired or have been cancelled, CIRA would notify all the accredited agencies about it through an email. It would also announce the date when the expired domain names would be available for registration again. |
