Chairman's Comments

Regarding the determination to continue the anti-dumping order on certain hot-rolled carbon steel plate and high-strength low-alloy steel plate in Canada.

On December 17, the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT) determined to continue the anti-dumping measures on certain hot-rolled carbon steel plate as a result of the sunset review.

During the sunset review proceedings, the Japanese steel industry has claimed that the revocation of the anti-dumping measures on certain hot-rolled carbon steel plate imported from Japan is not likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury to the Canadian steel industry.

We believe that it is inappropriate and regrettable that CITT has rejected our statements and concluded to continue the anti-dumping measures on certain hot-rolled carbon steel plate imported from Japan.

The Japanese steel industry will carefully study this decision and determine a proper course of action.
