"Canada has jurisdiction over the bribery of a foreign public official when the offense is committed in whole or in part in its territory. To be subject to the jurisdiction of Canadian courts, a significant portion of the activities constituting the offense must take place in Canada."
This is not accurate anymore. The Canadian Government extended the jurisdiction in June 2013 to "pursue acts of bribery committed by any Canadian citizen, permanent resident or entity incorporated or formed under the laws of Canada or any province thereof, no matter where in the world the act is alleged to have occurred and regardless of whether it has any other connection to Canada."
