Nice find DT, first example I've seen of a billion dollar company stepping up and making a multi-million purchase of .ca domains, and they think they got a great deal at that price to boot! For 400 domains works out to about 6k per name, would like to see the whole list, the names they mentioned are definitely premiums. I wonder too if Emall will regret that deal. Yellow Pages sees that they have to be online to stay competitive and boost revenues. And again, another domain story in a major publication to help boost the domain market and create more awareness for .ca

Latest domain sales report is out and covers the last two weeks.

Delivery.ca is number 11 out of all extensions at $29,500 (Can)
WhiteWeddings.ca sold for $1,100
Surprisingly no other .ca on the country code list. The 25 domains on the country code list sold for between $1,500 to $717,000, but most were around 2k to 10k.
The top sale for ALL extensions was a country code domain for Norway which sold for 717k to the Norway government. That's great for all country code believers, and a surprise for a country with less than 10 million people.
