Thanks to everyone who replied! I love this list.

Getting .fr, .co.uk and .com.au domains should be doable since we do have
offices in those countries (that is, as long as the domains are available),
but we'll see whether or not it will be "easy". Canada will be tougher, and
I'm not holding out much hope.

If anyone else has a line on remaining European countries, especially Italy,
let me know.

I'm not sure about other companies, but in Canada you have to be Canadian to
have a domain.ca  To be specific, you have to be a federally incorporated
for-profit corporation or a federally incorporated non-profit corporation.
That last bit's taken straight from www.canadiandomain.com.  Hope that
helped....
