The Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT) has determined that there is a reasonable indication that the dumping of hot rolled (HR) carbon steel plate from Brazil, Taiwan, Denmark, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, and South Korea has caused injury or is threatening to cause injury to the domestic industry.
Accordingly, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) will continue its investigation and, by December 4, 2013, it will issue a preliminary determination.
As SteelOrbis previously reported, Canada launched the antidumping duty investigation for hot rolled carbon steel plate from the abovementioned seven countries in September 2013 upon a complaint made by Essar Steel Algoma Inc., of Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario.
