0 ... not many people with dyslexia buy domains. Don't see any value.

Such a Google result only tells you how many times people have mis-spelt "Password" as "Passwd" around the Web and does not offer any reflection towards how many times someone searched the typo "Passwd" across the Web - HUGH difference. (ie: Supply vs. Demand)

# of times "Passwd" was searched on last month (according to Overture):

280 passwd

Such results lead me to believe this domain is only worth Reg Value.

ie: Demand is not there based on low search results for said Term (not to mention it's a .CA (not to say .CA's aren't good, as they are, but in this example, it doesn't work imo)).

Obviously, Value would increase with development - but that can be said for most all Domains.

Best of Luck in your Future Domain Endeavours.

I'm not saying it's worth much but passwd is not a misspelling.
It's actually a very common term in linux/ssh.

passwd is a tool on most Unix and Linux systems used to change a user's password.

It might have some value to people using Linux in Canada,
but to most people, they don't know the meaning of passwd. I
had to look it up in Wikipedia. Even after I know what it is I
still don't understand how someone could use or make money
from this domain - which will help determine its value. I would
stick to registering more common words or phrases with
commerical value in .ca . The question I always ask myself is
"what are the chances of my neighbors using this term or
searching for it on the internet?". Then I also do searches in
overture, etc, to see how many are actually searching for it.
Would appraise right now at reg fee, maybe higher to a Linux
keener programmer.
