Thank you for the question.
The Special Import Measures Act is the responsibility of the Minister of Finance. It sets out the rules for implementing Canada's rights to impose anti-dumping or countervailing duties against injurious imports. The process is that domestic industry would file a complaint with the Canada Border Services Agency, who would investigate the dumping or subsidy allegations, and then the Canadian International Trade Tribunal would investigate the injury allegations.
You need both a finding of dumping or subsidization, plus an injury finding, in order for the duties to be put in place, and that's all done through an independent process. So if those findings from both the Canada Border Services Agency and the Canadian International Trade Tribunal are that there's subsidization and dumping, then injury duties are imposed to protect domestic manufacturers or producers.
In the case of British Columbia, there's been a history of such regional cases, where they're showing injury only to a regional market. So that would have to be explored with the CBSA in terms of initiating a case.
