Réponses aux questions obligatoires:
1. Pourquoi désirez‐vous faire partie du conseil d’administration de
l’ACEI?
To continue developing the .CA domain name and spreading the word on the
advantages for local Canadian businesses, blogs, and forums to register the website
under the ccTLD.
2. Quelles sont les compétences ou les expériences particulières que
vous possédez et qui font de vous le meilleur candidat pour le conseil
d’administration de l’ACEI?
I am intellectual property lawyer specializing in Internet/Copyright &
Trademarks/Social Media Issues.
I am obsessed with technology and the way it can change and improve the our lives.
I have governance experience with private corporations, condominium boards, and
student social clubs.
3. Quels seront, selon vous, les trois principaux défis et les trois
possibilités clés devant lesquels le domaine .CA se trouvera au cours
des trois à cinq prochaines années?
Cyber-squatting
4. Quelles mesures particulières proposez‐vous pour relever un ou
plusieurs de ces défis et profiter de ces possibilités?
Continue to monitor and actively assess the CDRP process to ensure legitimate
business and stakeholders are served by the process, while also limiting the
possibility of overreach by trademark holders.
Continue to hold grass-roots events to educate the public on the advantages of the
.CA domain and how CIRA can serve their interests and needs, and listening to those
needs.
Encourage aspiring programmers and computer scientists to develop the .CA
registry integrating block-chain database technology! I believe the .CA registry is a
perfect test-case for block-chain databases and will set the bar for provincial
property (both real property and personal property) registries, banking and
financial institutions, and other applications.
