Sure. Look at the hot-rolled coil, cold-rolled coil or galvanized coil that floods into Canada. You should put a quota on that product category—not necessarily a country, but that product category. Let's say a million tonnes of hot rolled coil comes into this country, but we have steel mills that could easily produce 600,000 more of those. You should put a quota down to 400,000 tonnes so that the domestic steel mills could fill themselves up and employ the people to do that.
The same applies to pipe and tube. Again, I could have 120 people working for me in Welland, producing—and consuming, by the way—140,000 tonnes or 150,000 tonnes of steel, but the imports come in, standard pipe from the likes of Korea, Thailand and Vietnam. If we quota that product down, I could start that plant up again and support the domestic steel industry, but we just let the product pour in.
I'll give you an example, and I'll try to do it very quickly. It concerns piling, which we pound into the ground. We filed a dumping case against China on piling, and we won that case. It took 18 months and I spent $2 million. I won that case. The very day I won the case, the gentleman who was importing that product changed the tariff code to API 5L line pipe and brought it in as line pipe. I had to then file another 18-month dumping case on line pipe to get that blocked out, and we blocked it out from China. The very next day, he brought it in from India. I've spent $3 million and got no relief.
You need to put quotas on the product category from all countries, and then block it out from here. Let the domestic producer produce it, support our industry, create jobs here and pay taxes.
