OTTAWA, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - April 10, 2012) - The Canadian International Trade Tribunal today found as follows:

• The dumping and subsidizing of pup joints from China that are tubing pup joints have not caused injury but are threatening to cause injury to the domestic tubing pup joints industry; and
• The dumping and subsidization of pup joints from China that are casing pup joints, if any, have not caused injury or retardation and are not threatening to cause injury to the domestic casing pup joints industry.

Anti-dumping and countervailing duties will therefore be collected by the Canada Border Services Agency on tubing pup joints from China. The complainant in this case was Dover Corporation (Canada) Limited - Alberta Oil Tool Division of Edmonton, Alberta.

The Tribunal will issue the reasons for its findings on April 25, 2012.

The Tribunal is an independent quasi-judicial body that reports to Parliament through the Minister of Finance. It hears cases on dumped and subsidized imports, safeguard complaints, complaints about federal government procurement and appeals of customs and excise tax rulings. When requested by the federal government, the Tribunal also provides advice on other economic, trade and tariff matters.
