[:en]3… 2… 1… GO ![:fr]3… 2… 1… C'est parti ![:]
[:en]Distilleries Canada is born!
Born in my head yesterday, and online today.
To tell you everything, when the idea came to me, I decided to start by finding a name that works in both French and English, making it universal for the domain name. I had a moment of sudden inspiration when I realized the plural forms of “distillerie“ and “distillery” are one and the same.
After verifying online if “.ca” was available, I took my project further and began a website mock-up… Later, during my transaction to purchase the name, it was unavailable. After several unsuccessful attempts, I realized the unused site belonged to someone for the sole purpose of reselling it for profits !
Finally, after much thought this morning, I opted for www.distilleriescanada.com ; Voilà, a dream is born !
I will begin by focusing primarily on Quebec with a goal to offer a site covering the country as a whole in both languages.
As a consumer, you will find a complete list of thoroughly reviewed distilleries and micro-distilleries.
As a professional in the field, you will find a source of relevant information and the possibility of conveying information such as product launches and job offers…
Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any suggestions or comments relevant to my project. Cheers !

[:fr]Distilleries Canada est né !
Né dans ma tête hier, et en ligne aujourd’hui.
Pour tout vous raconter, quand l’idée m’est venue, j’ai décidé de commencer par trouver un nom qui fonctionnerait aussi bien en français qu’en anglais, c’est plus universel pour le nom de domaine. Et en partant de « distillerie » et « distillery », j’ai eu un déclic comme quoi leur orthographe est le même au pluriel.
Après vérification sur un site que « .ca » était disponible, j’ai alors commencé au projet un peu plus en profondeur, démarré une maquette de site web… mais plus tard, lors de la transaction pour acheter le nom, j’ai eu droit à un message comme quoi il n’était pas disponible ?!! J’ai ré-essayé à quelques reprises, et visiblement, il y avait un bogue sur la page de vérification initiale. Le site appartient effectivement à quelqu’un mais sans être utilisé, juste dans le but de le revendre avec profits !
Finalement, j’ai attendu ce matin pour y penser, et j’ai opté pour www.distilleriescanada.com
Dans un premier temps, je vais me consacrer essentiellement au Québec, mais le but est vraiment d’offrir un site couvrant le pays dans son ensemble et dans les deux langues.
Si vous êtes consommateur, vous y trouverez une liste des distilleries, et surtout micro-distilleries, la plus complète possible.
Si vous êtes un professionnel du domaine, vous devriez y trouver une source d’informations pertinentes, et la possibilité de véhiculer des informations comme le lancement d’un produit ou une proposition d’emploi…
N’hésitez pas à communiquer avec moi si vous avez des suggestions ou remarques pertinentes et constructives.

Distilleries Canada is born!

To tell you everything, when the idea came to me, I decided to start by finding a name that would work in both French and English, it is more universal for the domain name. And starting from « distillery » and « distillerie », I had a click that their spelling is the same in the plural.
After checking on a site if « .ca » was available, I then started the project a little deeper, started a website mockup … but later, during the transaction to buy the name, I had right to a message that it was not available? !! I re-tried a few times, and obviously, there was a bug on the initial verification page. The site actually belongs to someone but not used, it is just for the purpose of reselling it with profits!
Finally, I waited this morning to think about it, and I opted for www.distilleriescanada.com
First of all, I’m going to focus primarily on Quebec, but the goal is really to offer a site covering the country as a whole and in both languages.
If you are a consumer, you will find a list of distilleries, and especially micro-distilleries, the most complete possible.
