Companies reporting major news:
Tembec Inc. (TSX:TMB). Forest Products. Down six cents, or 2.03 per cent, to $2.89 on 128,191 shares. The Montreal-based company, one of Quebec’s largest forestry companies, says it expects to qualify for $55 million of electricity rebates due to a four-year capital investment program centred at its Temiscaming manufacturing site. Tembec says its $136-million capital program will improve the competitiveness of its Quebec plants, particularly the specialty cellulose plant in the town of Temiscaming near North Bay, Ont.
TransCanada Corp. (TSX:TRP). Oil and gas. Up six cents, or 0.10 per cent, to $61.82 on 1.3 million shares. U.S. President Donald Trump has given TransCanada its long awaited presidential permit for the 1,897-kilometre Keystone XL pipeline, but analysts still aren’t counting on it getting built. The Calgary-based company faces a long list of permits and approvals before it can start construction, especially in Nebraska where TransCanada doesn’t expect a state commission to rule on the project until the end of the year.
