ADR - Administrative review (see below)     P - Publication date  
SNR - Expiry (sunset) review       C - Date of commencement of duty collection  
Provisional Measures  (Column 4) : Provisional measures apply from the date of a preliminary determination of subsidizing to the date on which the Canadian Inter national Trade 
Tribunal makes its finding regarding injury caused to the Canadian indu stry (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 review of in jury; or the date of the 
conclusion of a review of the amount of subsidy in cases where there is an existing Canadian International Trade Tribunal find ing of injury . The amount of the subsidy is normally 
expressed as an amount per unit.  
No injury (Column 7) : The Canadian Internatio nal Trade Tribunal makes its finding regarding injury caused to the Canadian industry after the President of the Canada Borde r 
Services Agency renders his final determination of subsidization (maximum 120 days from the notice of the preliminary determi nation). If the Canadian International Trade Tribunal 
finds that the subsidized goods did not cause injury and did not threaten to cause injury, definitive duties are not imposed and provisional duties are refunded.  
Rescinded (Column 7, reviews/other proceedin gs): The Canadian International Trade Tribunal generally conducts the expiry review (sunset review) before the expiry of the findin g 
or order imposing duties . If the Tribunal finds that the injury caused by the subsidizing of the goods is not likely to res ume or continue, they will rescind the original finding or order, 
usually on the date of that the order or finding would have expired.  
Interim Review (INR) : An interim review is a review that is initiated where there is a reasonable indication that suffici ent new facts have arisen  or that there has been a sufficient 
change in the circumstances that led to the measure, or where there are sufficient facts that, although in existence, were no t put into evidence during the previous review or 
investigation and w ere not discoverable by the exercise of reasonable diligence at that time.  
Sunset Review (SNR) : A review of an existing countervailing measure to determine whether the measure should be continued.  
Administrative Review (ADR) : A review  of administrative review of the amount of subsidy of an existing countervailing measure . These proceedings are not reviews of whether 
to extend or rescind measures in force ; they are used to update amounts of subsidy . The completion date of the review is show n in column  5. If this column is empty, the ADR has 
not been completed during the reporting period.  
Anti-circumvention investigation : (ACI): An investigation to determine whether circumvention of an existing countervailing measure is occurring . These inves tigations determine 
whether an existing measure in force will be extended to the goods . Individual amounts of subsidy are not calculated and, therefore, it is not possible to state these amounts of 
subsidy . The completion date of the ACI is shown in column  5. If this column is empty, the ACI has not been completed during the reporting period.  
NOTES  
Note 1  - Unless otherwise indicated, the volume of imports reported in column 9 is for the period of investigation for the subsidy inv estigation.  
Note 2  - Unless  otherwise indicated, the import volume in column 10 is reported as the percentage ratio of subsidized imports to total import s for the period of investigation for the 
subsidy investigation.  
Note 3  - Under Canadian legislation, questions of law can be refe rred to the Federal Court and the Federal Court of Appeal for domestic judicial review.  
Note 4  - Applications regarding questions of law can be made to the Supreme Court of Canada although the Supreme Court of Canada must grant leave in order for the case to be 
heard . This is the final court of appeal.

Note 6 - In Canada, domestic legislation allows importers to request refunds of anti -dumping and countervailing 
duties through a process called re -determinations . Requests for re -determinations of countervailing duties can 
be made on two grounds:  
- The amount of subsidy on the goods;  
- Whether the imported goods are goods of the same description as goods to which the order or 
finding applies (note : when an order or finding imposes both anti -dumping and countervailing 
duties, a refund request made on this ground will appear on both reports).  
In Canada, requests for re -determinations follow a two -level appeal system under which the re -determination at 
the first level can further be appealed at the second level.  
Consequently, the table records the number of requests made under both levels of re -determination, for any of 
the two grounds listed previously with respect to imported goods sub ject to countervailing measures.  
Note that in the context of the Canadian system for processing refund requests, the following descriptions apply 
for the table headings:  G/SCM/N/371/CAN  
- 9 - 
  - "Number of refund requests received ": the number of requests received during the per iod covered 
by the report.  
- "Number of refund reviews commenced ": includes the number of requests received during the 
period covered by the report and the number of requests received in a preceding period that were 
not completed within the period covered by the report . Under the Canadian system once a request 
is received, a decision under both levels of appeal must be rendered within one year.  
- "Number of refund reviews completed ": the number of requests that were completed during the 
period covered by the report.  
Further, under the Canadian duty refund system, a request can cover multiple entries . It may thus be possible 
for one request to represent a series of entries rather than an individual entry.
