Structured register of government actions in the geoeconomic space — export controls, tariffs, sanctions, FDI screening, subsidies, industrial-policy laws — cross-referenced into the country, minerals, and ETF surface. Charter: docs/IPTM_CHARTER.md.
Severity 1-5 is the qualitative impact rating (1=minor, 5=structural). The bilateral-trade-grounded quant scorer is the next IPTM milestone. RBI (Register Breadth Index) is a complementary structural-breadth indicator from scripts/py/iptm/breadth.py; divergence between RBI and severity is itself informative (high-sev / low-RBI = strategic chokepoint; low-sev / high-RBI = broad but shallow). Every action has at least one primary source URL. Verify-or-don't-file. See also themes, timeline, graph, sankey, map, country exposure, sector exposure, material exposure (+ graph), weekly briefs, portfolio scan, escalation monitor, trans-shipment hubs. Internal triage tools (RSS-poller candidate feed, source-feed health) live under /admin/candidates + /admin/sources. Subscribe via Atom feed (accepts ?country=CN, ?material=lithium, ?issuer=BIS, ?type=export_control, ?etf=SOXX, ?company=NVDA, ?minSeverity=4, ?year=2026, ?q=…) or pull /api/iptm/actions.
On 6 February 2026 the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT) found that dumped and subsidized imports of cast iron soil pipe from China have caused material injury to the Canadian domestic industry, triggering collection of definitive duties by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA). Final anti-dumping duties range from 155.5% to 444.2% of export price by exporter (444.2% for all other exporters), and a flat countervailing (subsidy) duty of 28.5% of export price (equivalent to CNY 1,550.44 per metric tonne) applies to all Chinese exporters. CBSA had initiated the dumping and subsidizing investigation on 11 July 2025 following a complaint from Canada Pipe Company ULC, d.b.a. Bibby-Ste-Croix (Sainte-Croix, Québec), and imposed provisional duties from 9 October 2025 pending the final determination and injury finding.
On 14 January 2026 the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT) found that dumped steel strapping from Türkiye, and dumped and subsidized steel strapping from China, caused material injury to Canada's sole domestic producer, triggering collection of definitive duties by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA). Final anti-dumping duties of 47.9% of export price apply to all Chinese and Turkish exporters (with three named Chinese exporters carrying that same residual rate per CBSA's final determination), and a countervailing (subsidy) duty of CNY 0.44 per kilogram applies to all Chinese exporters. The Tribunal found dumping volumes from South Korea and Vietnam negligible and terminated those two country inquiries with no measures imposed. CBSA had initiated the investigation on 12 May 2025 following a complaint from JEM Strapping Systems Inc. (Brantford, Ontario), Canada's only domestic steel strapping producer, and had collected provisional duties from 16 September 2025 pending the final determination and injury finding.
