OTHER CODES AND NOTATIONS  
 Provisional Measures  (Column 4):  Provisional meas ures apply from the date of a 
preliminary determination of dumping to the date on which the Canadian International Trade Tribunal 
makes its finding regarding injury caused to th e Canadian industry (maximum 120 days from the 
notice of the preliminary determination). 
  Definitive Duties  (Column 5):  Either the date of a positive injury finding, in the case of an 
investigation or the date of the conclusion of a revi ew of injury; or the date of the conclusion of a 
review of normal values and export prices in cases wh ere there is an existing Canadian International 
Trade Tribunal finding of injury.  In the case of an investigation, the percentage represents the 
weighted average margin of dumping as a percentage  of normal value for the final determination of 
dumping.   Price Undertaking (Column 6):  This column is used al so to report how Canada implements 
the recommendation adopted by the Committee (G/ ADP/9, dated 29 November 2002).  “Informed” 
means that the authorities informed exporters, vi a the public notice, of the possibilities of price 
undertakings.  “Price undertaking explored” means th at the authorities discussed price undertakings 
with the exporters.   Total Trade Volume  (Column 11):  The total trade volume is based on statistical data for the 
latest available 12 month period prior to the initiation, unless otherwise indicated. 
  Interim Review :  An interim review is a review that is initiated where there is a reasonable 
indication that sufficient new facts have arisen or  that there has been a sufficient change in the 
circumstances that led to the meas ure, or where there are sufficient facts that, although in existence, 
were not put into evidence during the previous revi ew or investigation and were not discoverable by 
the exercise of reasonable diligence at that time.   CF : denotes Confidential.  The information provided to the authorities is given on a 
confidential basis or the results of a calculation would disclose information provided on a confidential basis. 
 
 n.a. : denotes the information is not available. 
  R :  This symbol is used in the context of a review of an existing anti-dumping measure. 
 
 The symbol R(1)  refers to an administrative review of the normal values and export prices of 
an existing anti-dumping measure.  The completion date of the review is shown in column 5; 
however, generally it is not possible to state the margin  of dumping, as it is not calculated in a review. 
  The symbol R(2)  refers to a sunset review of an existing anti-dumping measure to determine 
whether the measure should be continued.  G/ADP/N/119/CAN 
 Page 9 
 
 
  Renewal :  This indicates that an existing undertaking was renewed following a review. 
  Amendment :  This indicates a technical amendment was made to the undertaking, normally 
to account for changes in the price or terms contained therein.  
 Not Renewed :  In column 10, the phrase Not Renewe d means that an existing undertaking 
was not renewed following a review and was a llowed to expire on its anniversary date. 
 
 NOTES 
 
Note 1 
 
 The margins of dumping indicated in Column 4 reflect the results of the preliminary determination of dumping and in Column 5 the results  of the final determina tion of dumping.  Under 
the prospective system for duty assessment, norma l values and export prices are established in 
advance of importation of subject goods and provide d to known exporters.  Where goods are priced at 
or above their specific normal values, they do not in cur any duty liability on importation.  As such, the 
percentages in Columns 4 and 5 do not necessarily reflect the amount of provisional duty or anti-dumping duty that may be assessed. 
 
Note 2  
 At the preliminary determination of dumpi ng on hot-rolled steel plate, provisional duties on 
subject goods were assessed as follows: Bulgaria 74.6 per cent; Czech Republic 74.6 per cent; 
Romania 53.2 per cent or 74.6 per cent of the export price, depending upon the exporter. 
 
Note 3 
  
 At the preliminary determination of dumping on wood Venetian blinds and slats, provisional 
duties were assessed as follows: People’s Republic of China 120 per cent and Mexico 120 per cent of 
the export price. 
 
Note 4  
 At the preliminary determination of dumpi ng on fuel tanks, provisional duties on subject 
goods were assessed as follows: People’s Republic of China 39.4 per cent or 83.4 per cent of the 
export price, depending on the exporter; Chin ese Taipei 83.4 per cent of the export price. 
 
Note 5 
 
 At the preliminary determina tion of dumping on stainless steel wire, provisional duties were 
assessed as follows: Republic of Korea 108 per cent; Switzerland 108 per cent and the United States 
10.2 per cent, 54 per cent or 108 per cent of th e export price, depending on the exporter.  
 
Note 6 
  At the preliminary determination of dumpi ng on pizza products, the exporters were given 
specific normal values.  Therefore, where subject goods were priced at or above the normal values, no 
provisional duty was assessed. Where prices were below the normal values, provisional duties were assessed equal to the estimated margin of dumping.  G/ADP/N/119/CAN
