Talking point: While the Toronto Stock Exchange has not landed listings on the scale of those debuting in New York, companies seem to be warming to raising money in Canada’s public markets following Apotex’s June debut. Amapá Minerals Holdings said Friday it had raised $140 million in its public offering, and expects shares to start trading Monday.
