Canadians with a .CA domain have the opportunity to win $5000 cash, bragging rights and free advertising from the Canadian Internet Registration Authority (CIRA).
CIRAis recognizing both individuals and organizations that are using their .CA domains to make an impact on the lives of others. The impact can be social, technological or economic and there’s also four categories to enter.
The.CA Impact Awardswas created to celebrate best-in-class websites and applications in the fields of E-learning, small business, not-for-profit and web technology and design. Canadians are able to nominate anyone for an award (or themselves) but there’s a detailed description of what it takes to win in each category.
Your site should truly demonstrate the full potential of the Internet.
