Look Out Toronto - Trudeau's Spat Has Poked The Beast In the Eye And It Has Taken Notice of Your Number
Just when we needed to move away form the USA for new trading partners this happens. Good luck with gas prices now Eastern Canada.

CFL: And Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeere's....Johnny (Manziel)!
A tough game to watch as both teams comprised the two rivalry cities of Toronto. In Johnny's defense, he only had four practices to put all this together despite learning the CFL game while in Hamilton. Tickets were sold, lots of media coverage on him - the wins will come for the Montreal Alouettes.
(Although watching his first throw resulting in an interception, it did appear he forgot there were 12 men on the field!)

Apple Apple Apple...Let's Not Forget What It Really Means in the Dow Jones (Biased) Index
With every news reporter thinking that the recent recent run up to $1.0 Trillion market capitalization for Apple is going to have an impact or is going to be the bellweather for markets, and trying to look smart my making broader market predictions, this (see below) needs to be held in front of their faces. Boeing (9.4%), at almost twice the weighting in the Dow Jones Industrial Average index, has more of an impact than Apple. Followed by United Health Group and (of course) Goldman Sachs.
Traders "wanted" to take Apple to US$1.0 Trillion out of spite and drove it up accordingly. Now we will see if this valuation is real.
(I think it is a short)

What should have been done in a lopsided loss of game 1, well before Ricky Ray's injury, a quarterback change was needed. After a crushing loss of #15 for the Argos, Franklin had his opportunity and did well against his former team. However, other woes (including missed field goals), the wins did not result.
Over to the veteran McLeod Bethel-Thomson. What a win it was! What a game! Let's hope it translates to impovement at the turnstile.

"The majority of Canadians believe irregular migration into the country has reached a crisis point, according to a new poll, suggesting immigration and refugees will be a major wedge issue in the 2019 election."
"According to the RCMP, 11,420 asylum seekers have entered Canada between official border crossings from Jan. 1 to July 15, 2018. Last year, there were 20,953 irregular crossings in total, up from just 2,486 in 2016. The vast majority have entered at an unofficial crossing point in Quebec."
