Director of Operations with Flowers.ca Inc.: "We
are very pleased to add www.roses.ca to
our business. Now we seamlessly direct
web visitors to our main rose page whenever "roses.ca" is
typed into a web browser's address bar. Using short, meaningful and
easy to remember domain names such as flowers.ca or roses.ca allows
our customers across Canada to quickly and easily find us online. Every
