It appears you are correct. The site's registrant is from Canada. A whois lookup says:




Registrant:
Kevin Pan
2250 Kennedy RD apt 1503
Scarborough, Ontario M1T3G7
Canada

And a ping (if I did this correctly) does go to Absecon, NJ which is just outside Atlantic City. An area where Canadians do visit during the summer.
