Remember to follow the McGill Guide when citing international sources of law. Section 5 (International Materials) will help you with treaties, cases held before multi-jurisdictional international bodies etc. The 7th Edition has added a new section (Section 7 – Foreign Sources) which gives information on the citation of legislation, jurisprudence and government documents for the UK, USA, France, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore and South Africa.

If you require assistance with finding a source not listed here, or with proper McGill Guide citation, please contact HelpDesk.
