Typically companies only report domain name transactions to investors (in financial statements) if they're material to their business. The bigger the company, the harder it is for transactions to meet that standard. That's why some of the big 7+ figure deals from FaceBook, SalesForce, etc. never show up in their financials (if we're lucky, and the seller is smaller, we might find out via the seller's financials).

For Canadian stocks, we have SEDAR:

to use for searches. Unfortunately, they don't appear to have full text searches, which would make it very time consuming to search each document. I checked a couple of the Canadian Tire ones manually (didn't find anything), but until they improve their search capability, I don't have the time to find that elusive needle in the haystack using their antiquated systems.

P.S. This is *not* a recent acquisition. According to the historical WHOIS at DomainTools, that domain has had Canadian Tire nameservers since Nov 2018:

Now all they need to do is buy CT.ca or CTS.ca so I can save my fingers typing their site in on my phone.

They bought this domain wayyyy before 2018. If I recall it was like 2010 or 2012.


EDIT : Going through archive.com shows it well before that as well. In 2003 it was redirecting to TD bank and in 2004 it started redirecting to Canadian Tire.
