Tribunal Initiates Expiry Review—Gypsum Board from the United States

Ottawa, Ontario, December 13, 2021—The Canadian International Trade Tribunal today initiated an expiry review of its finding made on January 4, 2017, in inquiry NQ-2016-002, to determine if the expiry of the finding is likely to lead to continued or resumed dumping of gypsum board from the United States of America and is likely to result in injury.

On May 12, 2022, the Canada Border Services Agency will determine if there is a likelihood of resumed or continued dumping. In the event of a positive determination, the Tribunal will determine, on October 19, 2022, whether the continued or resumed dumping is likely to result in injury.

The Tribunal is an independent quasi-judicial body that reports to Parliament through the Minister of Finance. It hears cases on dumped and subsidized imports, safeguard complaints, complaints about federal government procurement and appeals of customs and excise tax rulings. When requested by the federal government, the Tribunal also provides advice on other economic, trade and tariff matters.

Any interested person, association or government that wishes to participate in the Tribunal’s expiry review may do so by filing Form I – Notice of Participation.
