If you own Canada.com, there is a very slight chance the government of Canada might try to use WIPO to get the domain from you. They would lose in court, but they might try.
However, there is no problem at all with using CanadaPorn.com - the only reason some countries have tried to get domains from the owners is if the domain name could confuse people into thinking it's an official site. I don't think you have to worry about the Canadian government wanting to take "FuckSexPornCanada.com" from you. I have had domains with countries in them for many years, adult and non adult, and I have never ever had a problem with it, nor will I. |

LOL You can have any domain you like just as long as it isnt trademarked or simliar reg copy right, patent etc.
If its a general term, phrase, word and happens that a company has a product that uses the same simply say "go fuck yourself" or pay up if it means that much to you.

The following Canada domains are not taken:
canada.biz canada.info canada.us (this domain makes sense) canada.ws canada.cc canada.bz canada.tv Turn them to pornsites and make us proud.  |
