In 2023, the import of unwrought nickel to Canada stood at approximately 12.8 Million US Dollars, marking the forecasted start of a declining trend up to 2028. From 2024 to 2028, forecasts show a progressive annual decrease in value. This gradual decline reflects an estimated negative CAGR, suggesting average annual shrinkage over the five-year period.

Future trends to watch for:
- Impact of global nickel supply and demand changes due to evolving industrial needs.
- Influence of Canada's domestic nickel production capabilities on import levels.
- Role of technological advancements and sustainability shifts in nickel utilization.
