The CIRA docs state that place names, provincial, city, etc... are
'reserved' words and not available for registration. Currently
though, their system does not automatically 'deter' the attempt to
register these names.
So if you are attempting to register 'placename'.ca, like the hords
of people trying to get Canada.ca... good luck :-) My guess is that
some will slip through the cracks, but eventually they'll just turn
around and yank them from you. After all, according to the CIRA
agreement, they can revoke the name for 'whatever reason they desire'.
