erm well that domain has been around for 6+ years

the MX is pointing at the mail server, but not the A record (which we're not
pointing anywhere right now, but might in the future) and that causes that
problem

right now the fix is to point the A to the mail server, and to remove the MX
(or else we get a looping case, or so we figured with another domain, in the
.com)

Looks like there are transient failures in NSes for the .ca TLD.

ca.                     86194   IN      NS      merle.cira.ca.
ca.                     86194   IN      NS      relay.cdnnet.ca.
ca.                     86194   IN      NS      clouso.risq.qc.ca.
ca.                     86194   IN      NS      ns2.uunet.ca.
ca.                     86194   IN      NS      ns3.utoronto.ca.
ca.                     86194   IN      NS      rs0.netsol.com.

Right now merle.cira.ca and clouso.risq.qc.ca do not resolve
acces-cible.qc.ca.  If this is a new domain, wait a few more days for .ca
TLD changes to fully propagate.  Otherwise, 1/3 of queries that go through
the .ca TLD NSes will fail.

Wait for changes to the .ca TLD to propagate, or for someone to fix the
servers.
