[clug-talk] .ca domain registration pricing

[John Jardine]

I know some of you set up web sites on a regular basis.  I do 1 every
couple of years so this kinda surprised me:  Domain names with U.S.
registrars are CHEAP compared to Canadian registrars.  I paid US$9/yr
for .com & .org.  The cheapest I've found so far for .ca is CAD$10/yr -
but alot of sites are charging $30 to $50.  What's behind the high
registration prices?
