Tried to register a .CA domain here, and it says its an "Unsupported TLD". If I were to buy that domain at godaddy, would I run into a problem migrating it to WA's hosting plat
Unsupported tld - problem with .ca domain?

The hosting and the domain name registration are two different things. WA can host a website with any extension but they only sell top level domain names. So the short answer to your question is if you need a Canada domain name (dot ca) instead of a dot com then you'll need to buy the domain name elsewhere and then point the nameservers to WA so you can have it hosted here.
Another user just asked a similar question, except she says that even when she tries to point the .ca nameservers here, she gets an unsupported error message. Interesting. - Joy

Thanks so much for clearing that up for me :) Cheers!
