Back in the day, pre-CIRA, .CA was managed according to rules which included the restriction that a single company was only allowed one domain name.
Same thing in ".fr", until 2000.
I think that policy was good for the DNS, but it was apparently widely hated by everybody else,
The big problem with this rule is that you have to define what is "a single company". It is easy (especially for a big company like the one you mention) to find or set up "fronts" to register more domain names.
