CONT

In the [International] Court of Justice's opinion "Parties must be free to invoke jurisdictional clauses, where otherwise applicable, without being made to run the risk of destroying their case on the merits by means of that process - itself - for their case could never either be established or negatived by means of a judicial decision unless a clause conferring jurisdiction on a court to decide the matter could be invoked on its own independent, and purely jurisdictional, foundations."

OBS

jurisdictional clause: Governing law and Jurisdiction. The contract evidenced by this bill of lading shall be governed by Canadian law and disputes determined in Canada by the Federal Court of Canada to the exclusion of the jurisdiction of any other Courts.
