TORONTO (Reuters) - Canada's main stock index fell on Wednesday as signs of increasing U.S. crude inventories weighed on the price of oil and shares of energy companies.

The Toronto Stock Exchange's S&P/TSX composite index (.GSPTSE) unofficially closed down 67.23 points, or 0.45 percent, at 14,995.65. Seven of the 10 main sectors on the index were higher.
