NOTIFICATION OF AN APPEAL BY CANADA
UNDER ARTICLE 16.4 AND ARTICLE 17 OF THE UNDERSTANDING ON RULES
AND PROCEDURES GOVERNING THE SETTLEMENT OF DISPUTES (DSU),
AND UNDER RULE 20(1) OF THE WORKING PROCEDURES FOR APPELLATE REVIEW
 The following notification, dated 5 February 201 3, from the Delegation of Canada, is being
circulated to Members.

Pursuant to Article 16.4 and Article 17 of the Understanding on Rules and Procedures
Governing the Settlement of Disputes (DSU) and Rule 20 of the Working Procedures for Appellate
Review, Canada notifies its appeal of certain issues in the Reports of the Panel in () and Canada –
Measures Relating to the Feed-In Tariff Program () and certain legal interpretations
developed by the Panel in these Reports.

Canada seeks review by the Appellate Body of the Panel’s findings and conclusion that the
Government of Ontario’s FIT Program, as implemented through the FIT and MicroFIT Contracts1, is
not covered by the terms of Article III:8(a) of GATT 1994. 2 This conclusion is in error and is based
on erroneous findings on issues of law and legal interpretation including the Panel’s finding that
the Government of Ontario purchases renewable electricity "with a view to commercial resale".
3

Canada also requests the Appellate Body to find that the Panel acted inconsistently with
Article 11 of the DSU by failing to make an object ive assessment of the facts related to this issue,
specifically with respect to the Panel’s finding that the resale of electricity purchased under the FIT
Program is "commercial" in nature, and by using this faulty factual finding to support its conclusion
about the applicability of Article III:8(a) of GATT 1994 to the FIT Program.4

Canada also requests the Appellate Body to find that the Panel failed to find that the
Government of Ontario does not purchase renewable electricity "with a view to use in the
production of goods for commercial sale".

COMMUNICATION FROM CANADA
 The following communication, dated 20 June 201 3, from the delegation of Canada to the
Chairperson of the Dispute Settlement Body, is circulated at the request of that delegation.

At its meeting on 24 May 2013, the Dispute Settlement Body ("DSB") adopted
recommendations and rulings in the disputes Canada — Certain Measures Affecting the Renewable
Energy Generation Sector (DS412) and Canada — Measures Relating to the Feed-in Tariff Program
(DS426). Further to Article 21.3 of the Understa nding on Rules and Procedures Governing the
Settlement of Disputes ("DSU"), my authorities have instructed me to advise the DSB of Canada's
intentions with respect to implementation of th e recommendations and rulings of the DSB. Japan
and the European Union have agreed that Canada will inform the DSB of its intentions by this
letter rather than by calling a special meeting of the DSB solely for this purpose.

It is Canada's intention to implement the recommendations and rulings of the DSB in these
disputes in a manner that respects its WTO obligations. We are advised by the Government of
Ontario that they are developing options to implement the appropriate compliance measures,
including the necessary legislative steps, to ensure that their FIT program is brought into
compliance with these rulings. These compliance measures will require a reasonable period of time
to implement. Canada stands ready to discuss this matter with Japan and the European Union, in
accordance with Article 21.3(b) of the DSU.

I respectfully request that you circulate this communication to Members of the DSB.

On 12 June 2013, the Minister of Energy of the Pr ovince of Ontario issued a Ministerial Directive
stipulating that large procurements under the Feed -In Tariff ("FIT") Program will be replaced with
a new competitive procurement process through requests for proposal. As a result, large wind and
solar electricity procurement are no longer subject to the domestic content requirements of the FIT
Program.
On 16 August 2013, the Minister of Energy of the Province of Ontario issued a Ministerial Directive
to significantly lower the domestic content re quirements for procurement of wind and solar
electricity under the FIT Program.
On 11 December 2013, the Government of Ontario tabled legislation (Bill 153 – Complying with
