TORONTO, Oct 2 (Reuters) - Canada's main stock index fell
more than 1 percent shortly after the open on Friday, following
U.S. payrolls data for September that fell well below forecasts,
raising doubts about the strength of the economy of Canada's
biggest trading partner.
The Toronto Stock Exchange's S&P/TSX composite index
.GSPTSE was down 147.55 points, or 1.11 percent, at 13,094.34.
Materials, home to mining and other resource firms, was the lone
gainer among the index's 10 main groups, with gold miners
leading the rally.
