TORONTO, Sept. 5 /CNW/ - TD Asset Management Inc. (TDAM) announced total
net sales of $83 million, including long-term fund net sales of $1 million and
money market fund net sales of $82 million. Total net assets invested in

    "August is traditionally a slow month for mutual fund sales, and this
August was no exception," said Tim Pinnington, President, TD Mutual Funds.
"Our gross sales in long-term funds continue to reflect a muted industry sales
environment as money market funds are receiving the majority of new money."
    "Despite the uncertainty in the markets, TD Mutual Funds continues to
seek to deliver long-term results for our investors," continued Pinnington.
"We are especially proud of our top-selling fund this month, the TD Canadian
Equity Fund, managed by John Smolinski."

Income Fund, TD Canadian Bond Fund, TD Real Return Bond Fund and TD Global
Multi-Cap Fund.
