I can see a number of these getting picked up - there a few others I'm surprised they accepted the high reserve and can't see selling because of it. What do you think?

Yummy

Someone picked up MapleButter

Why does the name sound familiar?
Is he not the guy that runs registry.ca?

Looks like Maples are getting popular

 

[cabotower]

this is an election year in canada.are canadian parties and special interest groups known for picking up political themed domains leading up to an election?

It is an interesting question but my thought is that local candidates hand register some available combination and the national parties already use their existing digital real estate only. I suppose a few possibilities in special interest groups, but I would think odds are low of making sales.

Could only mean WHC, domains were so cheap with them that they are easy to forget about.

I think your right or I was able to transfer in at a lower rate than what was offered at other registrars.

Keane
Capland
Cavalli
Mavin
Talan

Interesting article

Three reasons for non-Canadian companies to register .ca domain names now

[DomainRecap]

LOL, I just love lawyers writing crap like this:

"The lack of rights of the brand owner in the mark in Canada before the .ca domain name was registered led to the CDRP being dismissed, despite clear evidence of bad faith conduct."

Did this guy even go to law school? He clearly states there is no trademark in Canada, yet he wants a UDRP ruling in his favor? They always take "the world isn't fair" tack when the ruling doesn't favor them, and the "sorry, that's the law" angle when they screw someone.

 

[MapleDots]

What I found interesting is someone promoting .ca for outside users.
ie; non Canadian Companies

I mean it's done all the time with larger American Companies that have Canadian stores but I wonder how many of the registered .ca's are by people who have no legal claim to them.

I know I have bought a few from people in other parts of the world and wondered if they knew the risk in owning a .ca with meeting cira requirements.

 

[cabotower]

in the US and in Canada i don't think you have to have a trademark in order to have product protection.if the company can prove they were in the marketplace before someone regd their domain name they can apply to take it.Common Law.(i think)

Yes, I just meant the general comment, as it's very common lawyer-speak.

I really doubt there is much enforcement going on at the CIRA, and it's really the Wild West overall. Registrars doing whatever they want, anyone buying .CA who wants one, etc.

is it this easy for someone outside of canada to do?

[DomainRecap]

Look at all the sites registered by companies like Mark Monitor - that's usually how it's done, although the CIRA doesn't expressly allow holding companies or leasing.

 

[cabotower]

3 questions
-
what is the official reason for not allowing noncans to reg .cas?
-
has there ever been a push to have the policy changed?
-
are there any other countries that do the same thing?

 

[Spex]

Along the same vein, has anyone sold, knowingly or unknowingly, to someone who didn't meet CIRA requirements?

For my end user sales, I just give a heads-up but don't really check further than that but I always loop back around to see how the name is being used for and have never seen anything suspicious.

When I sell on the forums, I never check
