I got this information from an other sit.
but in canada CKC = Canadian Kennel Club

The Canadian Kennel Club or the Continental Kennel Club? Both use the abbreviation "CKC". The Canadian Kennel Club is very reputable, like AKC in the US. The Continental Kennel Club has only been in existence since 1991 and is one of the most well known puppy mill registries.

Pedigrees may be falsified and if registration papers are supplied, they are typically through various organizations formed by puppy millers when the AKC's DNA requirements and inspection process (of kennels and records) made it impossible for them to continue registering their dogs with the AKC. Some of these "puppy mill registeries" include: APR (American Purebred Registry), APRI (America's Pet Registry, Inc.), CKC (Continental Kennel Club), UKC (Universal Kennel Club), ACA (American Canine Association). You should note that these registeries often have the same acronym as LEGITIMATE registeries such as the Canadian Kennel Club (CKC) and the United Kennel Club (UKC).
