SPECIAL IMPORT MEASURES ACT

Renewable diesel — Decision

On May 5, 2025, pursuant to paragraph 35(1)(b) of the Special Import Measures Act (SIMA), the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT) determined, with respect to renewable diesel originating in or exported from the United States of America (U.S.), that the evidence does not disclose a reasonable indication that the dumping and subsidizing of the subject goods have caused injury or retardation or are threatening to cause injury to the domestic industry. Therefore, pursuant to paragraph 35(3)(a) of SIMA, the CITT terminated the preliminary injury inquiry with respect to the subject goods.

Consequently, the Canada Border Services Agency, pursuant to paragraph 35(2)(a) of SIMA, terminated the investigations of dumping and subsidizing in respect of renewable diesel from the U.S., effective May 6, 2025.
