U.S. Trade Remedy Law: The Canadian Experience
The Canadian Experience
Second Edition
1985–2000
FOREWORD
In March 1993, the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade issued
a study entitled U.S. Trade Remedy Law: A Ten Year Experience. Produced by the
Department’s U.S. Trade Relations Division, it reviewed Canada’s experience with
the full range of U.S. trade remedy laws in the 1980s.
The following study, while limited in scope to U.S. anti-dumping, countervailing
duty and safeguard investigations, is intended to update and expand on the
information regarding Canada’s experience with U.S. trade remedy laws as
provided in the 1993 study. In contrast with its predecessor, the study includes
more detailed information on U.S. anti-dumping and safeguard investigations
involving imports from Canada, including discussion of some of the key issues
raised in those investigations. It also includes a discussion of the role that the
Government of Canada played in the investigations. In addition, there is an
updated review of the U.S. countervailing duty investigations involving Canada.
In view of the constraints of time, resources and frequent staff changes first within
the U.S. Trade Relations Division and then in the Trade Remedies Division, this
study may not be entirely comprehensive. Regardless, the intent is to provide
as much information as possible in the hope that it will be as useful a reference
document as the original 1993 study.
My thanks to Guy Boileau, Dean Dalke, Eli Feldman, Kimberley O’Reilly, Patrick
Thornton, and Chris Wallace for their contributions to this project.
