The meaning of the .ca domain

The .ca domain name is the top-level domain (TLD) for Canada and has existed since 1987. Although first set up and operated by volunteers from the Computer Science department at the University of British Columbia, CIRA has been the registry of .ca since November 2000. Operating as a member-based not-for-profit organization, CIRA works to optimize the Canadian internet performance and experience, including by managing the .ca domain. However, they don’t sell domain names directly to users. Instead, companies and individuals looking to strengthen their brand in the Canadian market can register a domain through certified .ca domain registrars, like IONOS. Doing so is a great way to demonstrate your dedication to serving the Canadian public.
