Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Text Block] | 5. Derivative instruments and hedging activities: Foreign currency forward contracts In October 2012, the Company entered into a hedging program with a Canadian chartered bank to limit the potential foreign exchange fluctuations incurred on its future cash flows related to a portion of payroll, rent, and payments to Canadian domain name registry suppliers that are denominated in Canadian dollars and are expected to be paid by its Canadian operating subsidiary. As part of its risk management strategy, the Company uses derivative instruments to hedge a portion of the foreign exchange risk associated with these costs. The Company does not use these forward contracts for trading or speculative purposes. These forward contracts typically mature between one and eighteen months. The Company has designated certain of these transactions as cash flow hedges of forecasted transactions under ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC Topic 815” ). For certain contracts, as the critical terms of the hedging instrument and the entire hedged forecasted transaction are the same in accordance with ASC Topic 815, the Company has been able to conclude that changes in fair value and cash flows attributable to the risk of being hedged are expected to completely offset at inception and on an ongoing basis. Accordingly, unrealized gains or losses on the effective portion of these contracts have been included within other comprehensive income (“OCI”). The fair value of the contracts, as of September 30, 2018, is recorded as derivative instrument liabilities. For certain contracts where the hedged transactions are no longer probable to occur, the loss on the associated forward contract is reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) to earnings. As of September 30, 2018, the notional amount of forward contracts that the Company held to sell U.S. dollars in exchange for Canadian dollars was $10.7 million, of which $9.5 million were designated as hedges. As of December 31, 2017 the Company held no contracts to trade U.S. dollars in exchange for Canadian dollars. As of September 30, 2018, we had the following outstanding forward exchange contracts to trade U.S. dollars in exchange for Canadian dollars:
