However Canada, unlike France, could never use the abbreviation of an
English term because French is one of our national languages. They can get
away with this in France by just declaring the term to be French but not
in Canada. Thus we would have to use md-tm.fr where md stands for marque
deposee or invent some new abbreviation such as the government of Canada
domain gc.ca instead of gouv-gov.ca.
