The Canada Border Services Agency (“CBSA”) initiated its expiry review (PP 2023 ER) on 14 March 2023 to determine, pursuant to paragraph 76.03(7)(a) of the Special Import Measures Act, whether the expiry of the order is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping and/or subsidizing the subject goods.
The schedule of the CBSA’s investigation has been posted online. Responses to the CBSA’s expiry review questionnaires are due on 20 April 2023. The CBSA is expected to make a determination on this matter by no later than 10 August 2023.

The CITT will determine whether the expiry of the measures is likely to result in injury to the domestic industry.
