I didnt bother to look up any other cities domains, but rather, posted a link to where you can add your city.
This isnt intended to be a city vs city arguement, so please don't turn it into that

Its kind of stupid and pointless to put a value on it anyways as all major cities and towns have already been blocked off and saved by the CIRA (Canadian Internet Registration Authority) for those cities and towns. So even if say toronto.ca or edmonton.ca were not being used there is no way you could ever buy it anyways.

Well, I see you have no sense of a little amusement. Its not like I created this thread for any practical means, or for any factual analyst or comparison. Quite obviously, this has no resemblance towards a city at all, just thought I would create a little fun, and a tiny bit of conversation.
