Here is my take on the whole issue from a different standpoint. While we all
tell our registrants that they are not guaranteed, etc. etc., I am really
curious to know how this will happen.
>From CIRA directly.
47. To whom will a Domain Name be registered, if there are two requests for
the same Domain Name?
Effective on the Operational Transfer Date, expected to be later this fall,
.ca Domain Names will be registered on a first-come, first-served basis, in
accordance with the Registration rules, provided that the Applicant and its
certified Registrar meet all the conditions for registration as well as
CIRA's rules.
I went all over the CIRA site and did not see anything that would
conclusively say whether early registration guarantees ownership or if it is
luck. OpenSRS says that CIRA will go from CIRA Member to member taking each
in turn and then possibly by time stamp.

A chargeback is where a credit card holder disputes a charge. The credit
card issuer then charges back against your merchant account.
That would not be a very good way for a merchant to do business.
*credit* the customers credit card and there will be no reason for the
customer to dispute the charge.
