Bank of America has reached a record $17 billion settlement to resolve an investigation into its role in the sale of mortgage-backed securities before the 2008 financial crisis, officials directly familiar with the matter said Wednesday.
TORONTO — If Target Corp. could re-do its launch into Canada, it would start with just a handful of stores, instead of the more than 100 it opened last year despite their lukewarm reception, the retailer said Wednesday.
However, Target chief financial officer John Mulligan said the retailer is not changing its plan to have 133 stores in Canada by the end of this year and 150 stores by 2017.
“We bit off way too much, too early,” Mulligan said during a conference call with Canadian reporters.
“In retrospect, (we would) probably open five to 10 stores last year — refine the operations, refine the supply chain, the technology, get our store teams trained. But again, that’s all hindsight, we are where are right now and we’re focused on moving forward to fix this for our guests.”
The retailer has been trying this past year to win back customers following a massive data breach in the U.S. and its botched foray into Canada.

Tooth fairy pays a premium for baby teeth in the Maritimes, skips Quebec
– canadianbusiness.com
TORONTO – If you’re a kid in Atlantic Canada, here’s a reason to smile. According to a new survey, the tooth fairy is paying a premium for baby teeth in the Maritimes and Newfoundland.
At $3.46 a tooth, it’s 19 per cent higher than the national average of $2.80.
Even better, 35 per cent of respondents in Atlantic Canada said their children found $5 or more per tooth under their pillows in 2014.
Quebec children were the least likely to get a visit from the tooth fairy — 13 per cent received no money for their lost teeth. For those who did, $2.06 was the average rate.
The findings are from a telephone survey of approximately 1,000 households with children under age 13 conducted for Visa Canada.
The company is promoting the launch of an online financial calculator that allows children and parents to compare their earnings with other children from similar households in Canada.
Ontario reported the second-highest going rate for baby teeth at $3.21 apiece.
“Generally, kids are doing really well,” said Visa spokesperson Michelle Michalak…
