On September 22, 2020, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) initiated a dumping investigation, referred to as Rebar III, with respect to certain concrete reinforcing bar (commonly known as rebar) originating in or exported from Algeria, Egypt, Indonesia, Italy, Malaysia, Singapore and Vietnam. Following the initiation of this investigation, there was a surge of imports from other countries and the CBSA received allegations that imports of rebar originating in or exported from Oman and Russia (hereinafter “referred to as “subject goods” and “named countries”) have been dumped, have caused injury and are threatening to cause injury to Canadian producers of rebar. 

The CBSA has conducted its own independent research and analysis. The information available substantiates the allegations that the subject goods originating in and exported from the named countries have been dumped, and that this dumping has caused injury and is threatening to cause injury to the domestic industry. 

Pursuant to the Special Import Measures Act, the Canada Border Services Agency initiated an investigation on December 4, 2020, respecting the alleged injurious dumping of certain concrete reinforcing bar originating in or exported from Oman and Russia.
