The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) launched an investigation into whether or not certain hot-rolled carbon steel heavy plate and high-strength low-alloy steel heavy plate from Chinese Taipei, Germany, South Korea, Malaysia, and Turkey are being sold at unfair prices in Canada. The investigation follows a complaint filed by a Canadian manufacturer.

In the next step of the investigation the Canadian International Trade Tribunal will first determine, by July 24, 2020, whether the imports are harming Canadian producers.

Concurrently, the CBSA will investigate whether the imports are being sold in Canada at unfair prices and will make a preliminary decision by August 25, 2020.

Anti-dumping duties could eventually be applied to the goods under investigation.
