Canada's main stock index fell 0.42% to 36,361.21 points on Tuesday morning as softer gold prices weighed heavily on mining shares. The decline marked a cautious start for domestic equities during Tuesday's morning session. Energy shares provided a partial cushion against the losses following fresh geopolitical tensions in Saudi Arabia.
