Include .ca domains for Canadian government sites #326

@dknauss

Description

@dknauss

.ca domains are scored with an "F" for incorrect TLD.

Canada does not use a separate government top-level domain (TLD) like ".gov" because it has chosen to use the country code TLD ".ca" for all its websites, including government websites. The Canadian Internet Registration Authority (CIRA) manages the .ca domain and enforces Canadian Presence Requirements. Government websites, including those of federal, provincial, territorial, county, and municipal governments, primarily use the canada.ca domain or subdomains like agriculture.canada.ca. The .gc.ca domain is reserved for internal communications for government employees.

All .ca federal sites are catalogued here: https://federal-organizations.canada.ca/orgs.php?t=1&lang=en
