THE WEEK AHEAD IN BUSINESS

Time to have “the talk”? Alimentation Couche-Tard’s hosts its first-ever investor day on Monday. The large convenience store chain, which operates as Circle K outside Quebec, recently said it hasn’t given up hope of selling cannabis as some Western Canadian provinces turn to the private sector for over-the-counter sales. • Telcos behaving badly: Rogers Communications Inc. discusses fourth-quarter and year-end results on Thursday. The company just came out of a competitive holiday sales period, in which Rogers and its competitors offered a limited-time low-rate plan to counter inroads low-cost carrier Freedom Mobile has been making with Canadian consumers. • Syncrude in court: Syncrude Canada will appear in provincial court on Wednesday to face charges related to the deaths of blue herons at one of its mine sites in northern Alberta in August 2015.
