The forecast for the import of cement clinkers to Canada from 2024 to 2028 shows a consistent downward trend. In 2023, the imports were higher than the forecast values, indicating a decline starting from 2024 onward. The year-on-year decrease ranges suggest a steady reduction, with each year's import value diminishing compared to the previous year.
