What is the test for establishing jurisdiction simpliciter?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Ingenium Technologies Corporation v. McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2005 BCSC 720 (CanLII):

The first question is whether Ingenium has established jurisdiction simpliciter in the sense of a real and substantial connection with either the defendant or the subject matter. Where the jurisdictional facts are disputed, the plaintiff must adduce evidence amounting to a good arguable case that the jurisdictional facts can be proven (Furlan v. Shell Oil Co. (2000), 77 B.C.L.R. (3d) 35, 2000 BCCA 404).
