# Post-Drop Report: November 11, 2026

8,754 .ca domains hit the ice this session, and registrars walked away with 338 of them, a catch rate of 3.86%. That's a quiet night by any measure. The handful of names that did get scooped, though, show exactly who came to play.

WHC Online Solutions Inc. ran the table with 200 catches, more than every other registrar combined. BareMetal.com inc took a respectable second at 98, and then the leaderboard falls off a cliff. Register.ca Inc. managed 12, Dynadot 9 and Grape Inc. 7, while Webnames.ca Inc., MyID.ca INC., easyDNS Technologies Inc., FastWebServer and DomainePlus.com picked through the scraps.

The pattern of the week belongs to WHC, which swept the "hey" aisle like it was closing time at Timmies: heygolf.ca, heybars.ca, heypizza.ca, heyshops.ca and heysushi.ca all landed in the same basket. Either someone has a franchise plan or a very particular sense of humour. WHC also grabbed solid two-word brandables like chefjobs.ca, dogsmart.ca, clubvelo.ca and wirecash.ca, plus the clean dictionary pair declaration.ca and usable.ca. Toss in the three-letter gdy.ca, and that's a busy, competent night's work.

Best single grab goes to BareMetal.com inc for bref.ca, four letters and a real word in both official languages. Tip of the toque. BareMetal also landed auk.ca, olympe.ca, norward.ca and prodrain.ca, a tidier haul than its volume suggests. Elsewhere, Grape Inc. snagged jro.ca and Dynadot picked up robink.ca, both quietly smart.

Now for the ones left on the bench. A trio of French verbs, ecris.ca, habite.ca and reponds.ca, went completely untouched, which is baffling in a bilingual country with a lot of Quebec small businesses. colonies.ca, showtell.ca, bluewise.ca, planapp.ca and toncafe.ca are all sitting in the open pool right now. We'll forgive everyone for passing on topwet.ca and canmess.ca.

This week's hunt says the big catchers are chasing English two-word brandables while the French-language gems slip through, so hand-registrants should get in there before somebody else notices.
