IN THE MATTER OF an inquiry pursuant to section 42 of the Special Import Measures Act respecting:
CAST IRON SOIL PIPE
The Canadian International Trade Tribunal, pursuant to the provisions of section 42 of the Special Import Measures Act (SIMA), has conducted an inquiry to determine whether the dumping and subsidizing of cast iron soil pipe originating in or exported from the People’s Republic of China, as defined below (the subject goods), have caused injury or retardation or are threatening to cause injury, as these words are defined in SIMA, and to determine such other matters as the Tribunal is required to determine under that section. The subject goods are defined as:
Cast iron soil pipe originating in or exported from the People’s Republic of China, whether finished or unfinished, regardless of industry or proprietary specifications, and regardless of wall thickness, length, surface finish, end finish, or stenciling, having a nominal outside diameter from 1.5 inches to 18 inches. Cast iron soil pipe is non-malleable iron pipe of various designs and sizes, including but not limited to both hubless and hub and spigot cast iron soil pipe.
For greater certainty, the product definition includes all pipe meeting the physical description set forth above, whether or not produced according to a particular standard or specification
Further to the Tribunal’s inquiry, and following the issuance by the President of the Canada Border Services Agency of final determinations dated January 7, 2026, that the above‐mentioned goods have been dumped and subsidized, the Tribunal finds, pursuant to subsection 43(1) of SIMA, that the said dumping and subsidizing have caused injury to the domestic industry.
The Tribunal further finds that the circumstances referred to in paragraphs 42(1)(b) and (c) of SIMA relating to massive importation are not present.
