LÉTOURNEAU J.A.

 

[1]               Despite the thorough and able submissions of counsel for the applicant, we have not been convinced that the decision of the Canadian International Trade Tribunal is unreasonable. The application for judicial review will be dismissed with costs to the respondent. No costs shall be awarded for or against the intervener.
