Google briefly posted a blog titled "Now there's Google Finance for Canada" and then quickly changed it to:

<<Oops. We hit the button too soon. Watch for news about Google Finance in Canada next Tuesday.>>

We're pleased to introduce Google Finance Canada, a localized version of Google Finance tailored specifically, as you might guess, for Canadian investors. Canadians are the second largest group of Google Finance users, and as a Canadian myself, I'm excited to see Canadian financial information presented in the familiar easy to use Google Finance format. This new edition includes:

   * Top financial news from Canadian sources
   * Search with a preference for Canadian companies
   * Front-page high level economic data from the Bank of Canada
   * Portfolios in Canadian currency (or the currency of your choice)
   * Equity data from the Toronto Stock Exchange, TSX Venture Exchange, and Canadian mutual funds

In addition, stock quotes and charts for Canadian-listed companies are now available through the Google.com web search.>>
