- Canada's Suncor Energy beat first-quarter profit estimates on Tuesday as the integrated oil and gas firm benefited from demand for refined products and higher oil production.

Canada's second-biggest oil producer said total upstream production was up at 835,300 bpd in the quarter, up 12.6% from a year earlier. The company reported adjusted operating earnings of C$1.41 per share for the quarter ended March 31, compared with analysts' average estimate of C$1.29, according to LSEG data.It has been our privilege to have the trust and support of our East Coast communities for the last 200 years.
