If Im selling out of Canada, to Canadians.. and I can chose between a .com and a .ca extension, which is better and why?

It depends your requirements. The .com suffix is international and designed commercial, most people will use the .com first. The .ca domain name is set and maintained by CIRA, and governed by Canadian law. And the cost is different.

If Canadian company selling within Canada and Canadian product. (.ca) is good to signify your a Canadian Company I think my opinion only but you can have .com redirected in case to get all typos.

I would go with both, always cover your bases. Not to mention protection against someone buying up the one you left open and starting a site that gets instant traffic because of your hard work.
