rdfs:comment	Die Barcelona Traction, Light and Power Company war ein 1911 in Kanada gegründetes Unternehmen mit mehrheitlich belgischen Eignern. Der Großteil der wirtschaftlichen Aktivitäten wurde hingegen in Spanien durchgeführt. 1948 wurde die Firma in Spanien für Bankrott erklärt, was einen Prozess zwischen Belgien und Spanien vor dem Internationalen Gerichtshof (IGH) nach sich zog, den Belgien verlor. Das 1970 ergangene Urteil gilt als wegweisend in Bezug auf den diplomatischen Schutz juristischer Personen und zu völkerrechtlichen Pflichten erga omnes. (de) La empresa Barcelona Traction, Light and Power Company, Limited fue fundada por el ingeniero norteamericano Frederick Stark Pearson (1861-1915), el 12 de septiembre de 1911, en Toronto (Canadá). A causa de su origen canadiense, esta empresa fue conocida popularmente como La Canadiense o La Canadenca, en catalán. El 14 de diciembre de ese mismo año, esta empresa creó en Barcelona la sociedad Riegos y Fuerzas del Ebro, nombre con el que operaría en España. (es) 바르셀로나 전기전력회사(Barcelona Traction)는 1911년 캐나다법에 의해 토론토에서 설립된 회사다. 그러나 사업활동은 주로 스페인에서 전력관련 사업을 하였고 제1차 세계대전 이후 주식의 대부분을 벨기에 국민이 소유하고 있었다. 그런데 1936년에 일어난 스페인 내전으로 그동안 발행한 회사채에 대한 이자 지급이 곤란하게 되었고, 1948년 스페인의 사채권자(社債權者)는 이 회사가 사채이자(社債利子)를 지급하지 못한 것을 이유로 스페인 지방법원에 제소하여 회사에 대한 파산선고를 받았다. 선임된 파산관재인에 의해 재외회사주식의 무효를 선언하는 등 일련의 조치를 통해 이 회사는 완전히 스페인화 됐다. 이러한 조치는 회사주식의 대부분을 소유하고 있던 벨기에 국민에게 막대한 손실을 안겨 주었다. 벨기에 정부는 이 회사의 주주인 자국국민이 스페인의 국제위법행위에 의해 입은 손해를 배상 받기 위하여 1970년 이 사건을 국제사법제판소(ICJ)에 제소했다.

La va fundar l'enginyer Fred Stark Pearson el 12 de setembre de 1911 a Toronto (Canadà), i fou liquidada per fallida el 1951 a l'estat espanyol després d'una conspiració de l'empresari Joan March. A causa d'aquest origen canadenc, l'empresa era coneguda popularment amb el nom de La Canadenca. Fou tan important que va arribar a controlar el 90% de la distribució elèctrica a Catalunya.
