Politics! Border bill blowback and 'Santa' Carney
Meanwhile, Mark Carney met with Canada's provincial and territorial premiers this week in his first ever first ministers' meeting, and the post-meeting vibes have been extremely positive. There seems to be a general agreement on the idea of building a new east-west pipeline — but almost nothing else about it is clear, including who would actually build it. How long will the honeymoon last?
The Toronto Star's Althia Raj and CBC Ottawa's Aaron Wherry are on the show to tackle this political doubleheader.

Bullish on Franco-Nevada Corp.
Franco-Nevada FNV-T (yesterday's close $235.64) traded in a wide horizontal range mostly between $140 and $220 for about four years (dashed lines). The stock had a breakout earlier this year and reached a high of $245.55 in April (A). Franco-Nevada was overbought at that time, far above the 40-week Moving Average (40wMA), and has since pulled back toward its average. There is good support near $210; only a sustained decline below $200-210 would be negative. A decisive rise above $240 would signal the resumption of the uptrend toward higher targets. Point & Figure measurements provide targets of $260 and $280. The large trading range (dashed lines) supports significantly higher targets.
