What is the test for determining jurisdiction of the Court of Arbitration for Sport?

Canada (Federal), Canada

The following excerpt is from Sierra Club of Canada v. Canada (Minister of Finance), 1999 CanLII 7756 (FC):

I must also keep in mind that the principle set out in Rule 3, that these Rules are to be interpreted and applied to facilitate rather than to delay, does not confer jurisdiction in a substantive way, but rather is to assist with interpretation: see Brandlake Products Limited v. Adidas (Canada) Limited, [1983] 1 F.C. 197 at 199 - 200 (F.C.A.). Analysis of Jurisdiction
