CITT initiates preliminary injury inquiry into unarmoured building cables from China

The Canadian International Trade Tribunal initiated a preliminary injury inquiry (PI-2025-010) into a complaint by PTI Cables Inc. of Pointe-Claire, Québec, that it has suffered injury from the dumping and subsidizing of certain unarmoured building cables from China, following the Canada Border Services Agency's initiation of dumping and subsidizing investigations under the Special Import Measures Act (SIMA). On May 15, 2026, the Tribunal will determine whether there is a reasonable indication that the alleged dumping and subsidizing have caused injury or retardation, or threaten to cause injury. If so, the CBSA will continue its investigations and make preliminary determinations by June 12, 2026.
