OTTAWA, Ontario (Reuters) -- Over the past few years Canada and the
United States have argued about bilateral trade in such high-profile
commodities as wheat, softwood lumber, cattle and hogs. Now it's
frozen self-rising pizza.
Ottawa said on Monday it would slap provisional anti-dumping duties of
39.4 percent on imports of frozen self-rising pizzas made in, or
exported from, the United States.
The duties -- imposed after a complaint by private Canadian firm
McCain Foods -- will affect pizzas such as the "Delissio" brand made
by U.S. food giant Kraft.
Canada's Border Services Agency, which imposed the temporary measure,
said in a statement it would decide on Aug. 16 this year whether to
make the penalty permanent.
AAAIIIEEEE! That's hitting us where we LIVE!!
The humanity...
