On July 9, 2021, the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT), initiated an expiry review of its order made on August 12, 2016, in Expiry Review No. RR‑2015‑002, concerning the dumping of certain flat hot‑rolled carbon and alloy steel sheet and strip originating in or exported from Brazil, China and Ukraine and the subsidizing of certain flat hot‑rolled carbon and alloy steel sheet and strip originating in or exported from India.
As a result, on July 12, 2021, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) initiated an expiry review investigation to determine whether the rescission of the order is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping or subsidizing of the subject goods.
The investigation has now been completed and the CBSA has determined that the rescission of the order:
- is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping of such goods originating in or exported from Brazil, China and Ukraine and
- is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of subsidizing of such goods originating in or exported from India
A Statement of Reasons that contains additional details concerning the determinations made by the CBSA will be issued within 15 days.
The CITT will now conduct an inquiry to determine whether the rescission of its order is likely to result in injury to the Canadian industry, and has announced that it will issue its decision no later than May 13, 2022.
