Model Law or Convention on Consumer Protection in E-commerce: The document presented by Canada CP/CAJP-2094/03 add. 5-a ) provides the basis for drafting a convention or model law on jurisdiction for consumer transactions on the internet. This instrument could also work in tandem with the instruments proposed by the Delegations of Brazil and the United States with regard to special jurisdictional issues in electronic transactions not covered by the other proposed instruments. The primary purpose of the document is to provide legislative options for addressing internet jurisdictional issues related to consumer matters. The initial proposal includes draft rules to establish the State with jurisdiction to hear a dispute (choice of forum), as well as the State whose law governs the resolution thereof (choice of law).
