The benchmark S&P/TSX Composite Index ended with a loss of 93.66 points or 0.47% at 19,691.21. The index touched a high of 19,820.43.

Goeasy (GSY.TO), Nutrien (NTR.TO), Bank of Montreal (BMO.TO), George Weston (WN.TO), Royal Bank of Canada (RY.TO), Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD.TO) and West Fraser Timber (WFG.TO) lost between 1.1 and 2.7%.

Softchoice Corporation (SFTC.TO) climbed 6.6%. Celestica Inc (CLS.TO) gained 3.8% and Teck Resources (TECK.A.TO) gained nearly 3%.

Docebo Inc (DCBO.TO), ATS Corporation (ATS.TO), Snc-Lavalin Group Inc (SNC.TO), Rogers Communications (RCI.A.TO), EQB Inc (EQB.TO), Stantec Inc (STN.TO) and Franco-Nevada Corporation (FNV.TO) ended higher by 1 to 3%.
