This

project

is

something

we

have

been

living

with

over

an

extended

period

of

time,

and

as

a

result,

there

are

many

people

and

organizations

that

we

wish

to

acknowledge

with

appreciation.

In

2006,

we

produced

a

report

for

the

now

defunct

Law

Commission

of

Canada

titled

"Global

Reach,

Local

Grasp:

Constructing

Extraterritor



ial

Jurisdiction

in

the

Age

of

Globalization.

”

The

report

we

produced,

which

was

later

published

in

the

Canadian

Journal

of

Law

and

Technol



ogy,

1

laid

the

foundation

for

our

project.

We

are

grateful

to

the

Law

Com



mission

of

Canada

for

its

enthusiasm

and

interest

in

the

subject,

and

for

the

helpful

feedback

we

received

from

the

Commission

chair,

Yves

Le

Bouthillier,

and

from

the

reviewers

of

our

report.

The

project,

which

has

ultimately

led

to

this

book,

was

supported

by

a

three-year

Standard

Research

Grant

from

the

Social

Sciences

and

Hu



manities

Research

Council

of

Canada

(SSHRC).

Funding

from

this

grant

enabled

us

to

hire

a

number

of

excellent

research

assistants.

We

are

very

grateful

to

Kokouvi

Akakpo,

Stefan

Currie-Roberts,

Aaron

Felt,

Carol

Fleischhaker,

Alex

Gorlewski,

Jim

Janson,

Breann

Kirincich,

Charlotte

Morden,

Jenny

Rodopoulos,

Lee

Seshagiri,

Jenna

Wates,

and

Alexandra

Diebel

for

their

research

assistance.

In

particular,

we

are

most

appre



ciative

to

Alexandra

Diebel

for

her

sterling

assistance

in

preparing

the

manuscript

for

publication.
