[GNC] Get online quote for Canada Fund

[Ove Grunnér]

Hi Kaman,

according to https://metacpan.org/pod/Finance::Quote::Cdnfundlibrary
"This module uses an id that represents the mutual fund on an id used by
www.fundlibrary.com. There is no easy way of fetching the id except to jump
onto the fundlibrary website, look up the fund and view the url for clues
to its id number."
the url for TDB900 is:
https://www.fundlibrary.com/MutualFunds/Detail/td-canadian-index-fund-e-series/1743
so try 1743

br Ove.
