A new association is being launched to help Canadians domainers protect their investments and increase the value of their domain names.

The Domain Owners Association of Canada will have its inaugural meeting at the Domain Convergence conference in Niagara Falls, Ontario, on October 7. The association is primarily focused on giving a voice to Canadian domainers in order to address their key concerns.

“It’s high time Canadian domain owners get their voices heard,” said Peter Maxymych, founder of the Domain Owners Association of Canada. “Domain owners in Canada have often felt like they are working alone. This does not have to be the case. With this association we can work together to promote our interests in domaining.”

The association’s website, DOAC.ca, will be accessible once the association is officially launched later this month. In the meantime, you can contact Zak Muscovitch, the association’s solicitor, at zak (at) muscovitch.com for more information.
