That works, too. I'm on lemmy.ca. Buying a .ca domain requires confirmation of citizenship or other qualification before you can even use it.
If I remember correctly it's an honor system thing. You need to declare your a citizen or PR or something
You don’t even need to be a citizen or PR, you just need to have “a Canadian presence”, which can be as simple as owning a trademark registered in Canada
Other countries have different requirements so it's good to always check in any case.
