Norman Forte, the V.P. of PointQuébec non-profit corporation that will run a domain, said: “Finally, Quebec will get its own name on the internet. Now we have over 271 million DN, and 113 million are in a zone.com. Companies cannot find fit and representative name at a reasonable price.

ICANN – Internet Corporation of distributing Addresses and Numbers that is responsible for assigning Global DN, - approved making 76 new geographical DN: “.nyc” – NY, “.berlin” – Berlin etc. Joining with Canada Quebec loses its short domain suffix “.qc”, because PointQuébec representatives said that only admitted countries are allowed to have a domain that consists of 2 words.
