(TSX:SU). Energy. Down $1.54, or 8.57 per cent, to $16.43 on 9.3 million shares.Companies in the news:Transat AT. (TSX:TRZ). Up 51 cents, or 5.7 per cent, to $9.49. The Competition Bureau says Air Canada's proposed acquisition of Transat AT Inc., which owns Air Transat, likely will hinder competition and result in less choice for Canadian travellers. In a report delivered to Transport Minister Marc Garneau, the watchdog says eliminating the rivalry between the two carriers would result in higher prices, fewer services and ultimately less travel by Canadians on a range of competing routes.Magna International Inc. (TSX:MG). Down 19 cents to $44.90. Magna International Inc. has withdrawn its 2020 outlook because of the "high degree of business uncertainty" caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Aurora, Ont.-based auto parts company says many of its plants, particularly in North America and Europe, have reduced or suspended operations as auto companies have scaled back because of the outbreak. The company says its operations in China are also still ramping up and below levels expected earlier this year, after an extended downtime in February.Reitmans (Canada) Ltd. (TSX:RET.A). Down 3.5 cents, or 7.9 per cent, to 40.5 cents. Reitmans (Canada) Ltd. is laying off 90 per cent of its Canadian retail store workers and 30 per cent of its Montreal head office employees after closing stores amid the spread of COVID-19. The company, which employs about 7,000 people, says that nearly all of its Canadian retail store workers at its five chains will be out of work effective Sunday. The head office layoffs take effect Monday. Reitmans, which closed its 587 stores March 17, says it's asking remaining employees to contribute to on-going cost-saving initiatives.Molson Coors Beverage Co. (TSX:TPX.B). Down $1.155 to $54.90. Molson Coors Beverage Co. says it is withdrawing its financial outlook for the 2020 financial year and beyond due to uncertainty about the impacts of the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak. The company released its guidance on Feb. 12, and its outlook for the 2020 year included a flat to low-single digit decrease of net sales revenue on a constant currency basis.Quebecor Inc. (TSX:QBR.B). Down 17 cents to $29.90. Quebecor Inc. says it has temporarily laid off 10 per cent of its workforce as it deals with the impact of COVID-19. The Quebec-based telecommunications and media company employs more than 10,000 people in Canada. The company says the suspension of non-essential businesses has curtailed the operations of many of its partners and led to a significant slowdown in some parts of its operations. Quebecor says it will top up the government assistance to cover 95 per cent of the salary of employees with an annual salary under $54,200.This report by The Canadian Press was first published March 27, 2020.The Canadian Press

Whitecap Announces Actions to Fortify Balance Sheet and Strengthen Position
CALGARY , March 17, 2020 /CNW/ - Whitecap Resources Inc. ("Whitecap" or the "Company") is employing proactive measures in response to current market conditions and the sharp decline in global commodity prices. Whitecap has persevered through previous commodity price cycles and will continue to focus on a strategy that protects the business, our balance sheet and liquidity and to provide returns to our shareholders. The current crude oil price weakness has significantly reduced the expected returns from our 2020 capital program and, therefore, we have immediately reduced our capital spending in order to protect shareholder value.

Spring breakup slowdown offers needed pause for hard-hit drilling industry
CALGARY — It's a "glass half-full" way of looking at a crisis but as plunging oil prices cast a shadow over oil and gas companies in Western Canada, the drilling industry is already slowing down because of the weather.Each year in mid-March, melting snow and ice prompt local authorities to impose weight limits on roads to prevent damage caused by the movement of heavy equipment, such as drilling rigs, a season known as spring breakup.Rig owners lay off operating staff and use the break, which varies from two or three weeks to two months or more, to maintain equipment and prepare for the summer drilling season."It's not by design but it's fortuitous. We're right at the end of our first-quarter capital program," Grant Fagerheim, CEO of Calgary-based producer Whitecap Resources Inc., said in an interview."We have spent between $160 million and $165 million — and we'll have completed (quarterly) spending by next Monday as we're coming into spring breakup."Oil prices were already falling because of fears the novel coronavirus would slow global energy demand when a price war erupted between major producers Saudi Arabia and Russia after they failed to agree on an extension to their output cuts.Crude oil futures were trading for less than US$30 per barrel on Monday, down from more than US$50 at the end of February.Fagerheim said spring breakup this year will provide a pause to allow the international chaos to settle down.He said he has assured his 157 office workers in Calgary and 120 field staff their jobs are safe for this year.But the rest of Whitecap's $370-million 2020 capital budget stands to be reduced if oil prices are still low when breakup ends."If you're a glass half-full kind of guy, that's one way to be positive ... It gives E&Ps (exploring and producing companies) a little more time to make an informed decision," conceded oilfield services analyst Tim Monachello of AltaCorp Capital.But he added spring drilling activity will be reduced even more than usual this year, pointing out AltaCorp is forecasting a 31 per cent decline in the average working rig count in Canada for the rest of 2020 even if the U.S. oil price rebounds to an average of US$41.50 per barrel."We'll end Q1 probably better than many people anticipated, but I think the concern is, is this industry going to come to life again after breakup?" said CEO Mark Scholz of the Canadian Association of Oilwell Drilling Contractors."That's going to be the big concern."He said there are certain to be layoffs as rigs are idled — the industry estimates each rig employs about 20 crew members and supports as many as 175 direct and indirect jobs.In its 2020 forecast in November, the Canadian Association of Oilwell Drilling Contractors predicted 4,905 wells would be drilled in Canada this year, a slight increase over 2019 but less than half the 11,226 wells drilled in 2014.Scholz said it's impossible to know now how much that forecast will need to be revised but it will almost certainly be adjusted lower.This report by The Canadian Press was first published March 16, 2020.Companies in this story: (TSX:WCP) Dan Healing, The Canadian Press
