Names of municipalities in Canada are restricted to the municipal government for registration. (eg. whistler.ca, ottawa.ca, vancouver.ca). Webnames.ca can help municipalities secure their .CA domain.

Register a Conflicting .CA Domain Name
With written permission from an existing .CA domain owner, you may register another level of the same domain name. (eg. owner of example.ca does no business in Saskatchewan and gives you written permission to use example.sk.ca.) Webnames.ca can advise you on how to proceed with a conflicting .CA domain registration.
