CIRA has upgraded its .CA Registry system to serve you better.

Ottawa, June 13, 2012 – The Canadian Internet Registration Authority (CIRA) is pleased to report that on June 12, 2012, the CIRA team successfully performed a system upgrade to the .CA registry. All administrative transactions are now back online.

This upgrade means a safer, more secure and more trusted system for all .CA users. For .CA Registrars, the benefits include significantly reduced maintenance window outages, which will make it easier for Registrars to work with CIRA. The registry upgrade has resulted in a better, more fine-tuned system that will benefit and save time for everyone in the .CA community.

If you have any questions regarding our registry upgrade or your .CA domain name, please contact our Registration Support Unit by email at info@cira.ca, or by phone at 1-877-860-1411.

CIRA would like to thank the .CA community for their support during the upgrade.
