After conducting a preliminary injury inquiry the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT) announced that it determined that there is a reasonable indication that the dumping and subsidizing of cast iron soil pipe from China have caused injury or are threatening to cause injury to the domestic industry.
The Tribunal’s inquiry was conducted pursuant to the Special Import Measures Act as a result of the initiation of dumping and subsidizing investigations by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA). The CBSA will continue its investigations and, by October 9, 2025, will issue preliminary determinations.
Provisional anti-dumping and/or countervailing duties could eventually be applicable to imports of the goods under investigation. In such a case the preliminary decisions of the Tribunal and the CBSA will have to be confirmed by final decisions.
