.ca Domain Registration

[Raf]

Does anyone know here where I can buy .ca Domains that accept PayPal and don't require me to fill in any forms dealing with the CIRA. Please post any links to registars that you might have. Thanks.

BIG Difference!! .CA is the Canadian ccTLD and is marketed as such and has nothing to do with California.

The people that are mixing up the intended use of the extention, are the people purchasing California citiy names and words that are strongly associated w/ California, and using the .CA . (BTW,I'm not one of them). Perhaps one possible solution to curb the confusion would be for Canada to annex California (or California to annex Canada). Then the people who registered LosAngeles.CA, Vineyards.CA, and Surf.CA would no longer be mocked for making such an idiotic blunder when they mistakenly confused the.ca tld for CA, the USPS official postal abbreviation of California.
Or, perhaps, the US and Canada could negotiate a trade and swap Quebec and California. Or better yet, Quebec and California could get together and merge as a new country named Quecal or Calbec. Depending upon the name of the new country (which would be determined by a coinflip using a neutral currency, say a eu coin, (not to be confused w/ Ecuador or a future tld), the new cc would be either .qc or .cq, not to be confused w/ .ca or .us, and, les voila!, everyone is happy! :bingo: :lala: .:hearts:

BTW, how do Canadiens abbreviate Canada?

Your post was quite amusing Grrilla, Canadians abbreviate Canada as CA so I guess that might be the reason why the Canada domain extension is .ca. :D

Right on good brother from the great white north!
It's the same deal here in the US w/ .us, although some go w/ the USA and in Kentucky have even seen US of A.
