I'm in the UK and recently had a .ca domain name deleted by the registrar after owning it for 3 years. The registrar had been acting as a 'local presence agent' to bypass the requirements that .ca domains be registered by a Canadian citizen or business, of which I am neither. Apparently something changed and they received an official notice from the regulatory authority for .ca domains (CIRA) asking them to stop providing this service. Luckily nothing really became of the domain, so it wasn't a big deal.
