In Web Properties > Link, try using https://clearsoundhearing.ca in the Link To Web Or Email Address box instead of the Link To drop down. Not sure how to do this if you're using the Xara Navbar, but assume something similar.
The Link To drop down always adds /pagename.htm. The ,htm isn't needed and is classed as a detriment for screen readers. In the case of /index.htm neither .htm, nor index, is needed.

Not particularly useful as you are tying down a link to an Internet URL.

The only (insane) approach is to force a redirect in your .htaccess file.

I am not a fan of SEO contortions.

On a side note and by the way thank you all for helping.
Out of all the SEO analyzers out there, which free one is the best and trust worthy?

Should I just stick to what google offers ?

Try SilkTide's Nibbler. You can test 5 different sites for free. I'm not vouching for them as I'm in Acorn's camp; but the results are set out nicely and relatively easy to follow their recommendations.

First line - as opposed to an internal link do you mean? Why is that different? I ask because I don't know.
Second line - what would redirect to the htaccess?
Third line - I agree. Try 3 or 4 different 'solutions' and you'll get 3 or 4 different sets of results.

Chris,
First line - if you just Preview or Export locally, the link fails if you have no Internet or if the site does not yet exist.
Second line - include Redirect /index.htm /; the index.htm file URL is never accessed so only one page gets trawled.
Third line - most of the good stuff comes free with Google's WebMaster tools.

Don't overthink SEO: good content, small pages, named images, structure.
