Does the ECJ run its sticky fingers over the dealings with Canada, Japan, Russia? . . . in fact any Country that is not part of the EU.

Are you trying to say that, whether we are in or out, any dealings we have with any EU Country have to be ratified and 'passed' by a court consisting of EU members, dealing with EU members, which presides over ensuring one EU member isn't being 'ripped off' by another EU member?

If that's the case, what is the equivalent UK court that ensures this Country isn't overwhelmed by cheap foreign imports that decimate our own manufacturing & industry . . . oh hang on, we're 40 years too late
Nothing to do with 'wanting' to be under the jurisdiction of the ECJ, it's about being members of organisations that make business simpler and more efficient. If being members of those organisations includes the ECJ being the final arbitrator, then fine.

Sovereignty is all well and good but feeling good doesn't put shoes on my kids feet...
