TRADE REMEDIES / WATCHING
01 / IN SHORT
The Canadian International Trade Tribunal terminated its expiry review and rescinded the 2021 order covering certain photovoltaic modules and laminates from China. The Canada Border Services Agency will therefore no longer impose anti-dumping and countervailing duties on the covered goods.
02 / WHY IT MATTERS IN CANADA
For Canadian importers and buyers of covered Chinese photovoltaic products, the decision removes an existing trade-remedy charge at the border. It also changes the competitive protection previously afforded to Canadian producers. The Tribunal release does not quantify the resulting price, volume or market-share effect.

WHAT HAPPENED
INTERPRETATION
The decision removes an existing Canadian trade remedy for the covered products. The commercial effect will depend on product scope, supplier pricing, import volumes and any other applicable border measures; the Tribunal release does not quantify those effects.
