Earlier this month the U.S. Department of Commerce announced its findings that imports of tin mill products from Canada, China, Germany, and the Republic of Korea are being unfairly priced, i.e., dumped, into the U.S. market, and imports of tin mill products from China are also being subsidized.

Commerce also found that imports of tin mill products from the Netherlands, Taiwan, Turkey, and the United Kingdom are not being dumped.

Canada's Minister International Trade, Mary Ng, issued the following statement:

"The U.S. Department of Commerce announced a final anti-dumping duty rate of 5.27% on imports of tin mill steel products from Canada.

"Canada is disappointed with this determination. The Canadian steel industry is a reliable partner of U.S. customers and plays a crucial role in the North American supply, manufacturing and delivery systems.

"These duties not only weaken supply chains between Canada and the United States, but also worsen the impacts of inflation on both sides of the border."

Tin mill steel is a a shiny silver metal widely used in manufacturing cans for food, paint, aerosol products and other containers.
