Alright guys, once again I am grovelling for help. So I have everything setup correctly. When I issue the "whois" statement followed by my domain everything is correct. I still am unable to access the website via http://www.inescapable.ca I have no success. Again thanks for help.

IIRC, you need to give up to 36 hours for DNS changes to propagate fully. Something like that.

No need to keep waiting, all the .ca roots are updated.

I see a couple of problems

1) Your name server ns.inescapable.ca (24.108.195.241) is not answering public DNS requests. Does your ISP allow you to run a public DNS server. i.e. Are they blocking requests?
Code:
[scowles@excelsior ~]$ dig +short @24.108.195.241 inescapable.ca ns
;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached
[scowles@excelsior ~]$
2) There are two other name servers listed dns1.wedohosting.com and dns2.wedohosting.com that do not consider themselves authoritative for inescapable.ca. If the DNS server at 24.108.195.241 is the DNS master, then the others will be slaves. Have you contacted the dns admin at webohosting.com and asked them to start pulling your zone files? Until this problem is fixed, these two servers will be considered "lame"
Code:
Oct 08 04:46:11.352 client 127.0.0.1#40781: query: inescapable.ca IN A
Oct 08 04:46:13.559 lame server resolving 'inescapable.ca' (in 'inescapable.ca'?): 64.141.0.65#53
Oct 08 04:46:13.659 lame server resolving 'inescapable.ca' (in 'inescapable.ca'?): 64.141.0.66#53
Also, this is not a requirement for DNS, but the reverse lookup for IP address 24.108.195.241 is pointing to an ISP assigned name. Until this is fixed, good luck sending e-mail from this address.
Code:
[scowles@excelsior ~]$ dig +short -x 24.108.195.241
S01060014bf280034.gv.shawcable.net.
