Just a note here
I have been interviewed several time now by the CBC on this very subject
they were going on the angle "why register Canadian"
but I think I will call them in the morning and advice them about all this
BS
what im saying is I have lost a second client to INTERNIC.ca
our former register actually who charges the highest going rate in the
market place and a 2 year min registration. THEY are the only place I can
find that are not having trouble putting registrations through
