Shares of Canadian National Railway CNR.TO were down 2%, adding to the decline on Wednesday when the company reported quarterly results that missed estimates.
The company has suspended its freight service through Jasper, Alberta, due to raging wildfires, according to a report in the Globe and Mail.
The industrials group was down 1.1% and materials, which includes metal miners and fertilizer companies, lost 1.2% as gold XAU= prices fell.
Boyd Group Services Inc was among the biggest decliners. Its shares were down 8.2%, falling to a seven-week low.
Technology clawed back some of its recent declines, gaining 0.5%, while energy added 0.7% as the price of oil CLc1 settled 0.9% higher at $78.28 a barrel.
Mullen Group Ltd MTL.TO was a standout, with its shares jumping 9.3% after the logistics provider beat earnings estimates.
