Ottawa – Mary Ng, Minister of Export Promotion, International Trade and Economic Development, issued the following statement regarding the United States’ final anti-dumping determination on steel imports from Canada:
“Today, 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 US 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. Canada will continue to defend the interests of the Canadian steel industry and its workers.”
