Today, trade secrets and confidential commercial information pertain to some of the most important assets in the digital and knowledge economies. Trade secrets are information-based assets that are not widely known, derive value from not being widely known, and have been the subject of reasonable steps to maintain and continue their secrecy. Confidential information are information-based assets that are not available from other sources in the public domain or obtainable by observation, independent study, or reverse engineering; originate in circumstances giving rise to a reasonable expectation the information will not be disclosed; and, whether supplied by law or voluntarily, are communicated within a relationship that will be fostered for the public benefit by confidential communication. Although confidential information does not always have economic value, assets of economic value are the focus of this work.

The time of globalization has seen an onslaught of criminal activity that crosses borders. The legal suppression and prosecution of transnational and cross-border crime raise unique and complex legal issues, and law enforcement, lawyers, and judges have struggled to keep up. Transnational & Cross-Border Criminal Law: Canadian Perspectives fills a pronounced gap in Canadian legal literature.

Written by subject matter experts, each chapter exposes and analyzes a current and pressing issue in this realm and is designed both to serve as a resource for researchers and to provide cutting-edge insight on front-burner issues. The group of authors — made up of prosecutors, defence lawyers, government counsel, academics, and civil society advocates — take on a variety of subjects, including terrorism, financial crime and corruption, jurisdiction, extradition, money laundering, trafficking, maritime enforcement, cross-border evidence-gathering, and the international transfer of prisoners. This unique collection will help to advance general understanding of one of the most pressing public policy issues of our time.
