Companies in the news:
Yamana Gold Inc. — Companies with mines in Quebec are moving to restart suspended operations after the province announced Monday it would redesignate mining, residential construction, auto mechanics and landscaping operations as essential services starting Wednesday. Yamana Gold Inc. and Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd — the owners of Canada's largest gold mine, Canadian Malartic — announced Tuesday they will restart operations at the open pit mine using measures that "meet or exceed" those demanded by the Quebec government.
Restaurant Brands International Inc. (TSX:QSR). Up $1.02 or 1.7 per cent to $59.34. As the COVID-19 pandemic started to spread, Tim Hortons reviewed its advertising plans and decided they no longer made sense as store closures, wide-scale layoffs and physical distancing upended life in Canada. Instead, the coffee chain went back to the drawing board for two new ads. One informs customers how to buy doughnuts, double doubles and other products without going inside a restaurant, while the other follows Tim Hortons trucks delivering free coffee and doughnuts to essential workers.
