Quebecor says it is deeply concerned about loblaw's desire to drive us out of the mobile shop. And it says the concern should be shared by canadian consumers who will see wireless competition weakened by this highly subjective decision quebecor says the move will effectively shut its freedom mobile brand out of stores across canada. The federal minister philippe champagne says it's a matter for the competition bureau. >> In terms of due process, you need to get the authorities involvement so that they can look at that, assess the merit and decide on further course of action. >> Dawna: the prime minister also says the loblaw deal is being looked at to see if it needs to be referred to canada's competition bureau. >> London drugs says unwilling and unable to pay a multidollar ransom demanded by cyber criminals who breached the computer systems last month. The company closed all its stores at one point. They are back open now but the crisis is not over. London drugs says the hackers could post stolen data on the dark web. Heather yourex-west explains what that could can mean for customers and staff. >> Reporter: its pharmacies

and stores may be open to customers once again, but london drugs is still dealing with the aftermath of a devastating cyber attack. >> A very well-known ransomware operation called lock bit claimed responsibility for the attack and further state they will be publishing the data that they stole on web sites on the dark web unless london drugs meet their demands. >> London drugs says it will not be paying any ransom. After confirming for the first time it had, in fact, been the victim of an attack orchestrated by what the company calls a sophisticated group of global cyber criminals, london drugs says it cannot prevent its stolen data from making its way on line. We acknowledge these criminals may leak london drugs corporate files. This is deeply distressing. While london drugs has confirmed that attackers stole files that could contain employee information, it maintains that so far they have no indication that any customer information has been compromised. >> That's a very optimistic guess. Right now they can't tell because it could take months to discover how much damage has been done. >> Somebody tried to take out $4,300 out of my account. >> Vic neufeld is a frequent london drugs customer who now wonders if that's how someone was able to recently make a series of fraudulent charges to his visa debit card. >> I don't believe in coincidence. That's the first thing that came into my mind. >> Cyber security experts say anyone concerned about their data should change their passwords and upgrade their security settings to include multifactor authentication. London drugs says it's offering all current employees 24 months of credit monitoring and identity theft protection services as its investigation continues. Heather yourex-west, "global news," calgary. >> Dawna: new data from interpol confirms canada ranks among the top ten countries for auto theft. The international law enforcement agency says more than 1500 vehicles stolen in canada have been identified by police around the world since february.

The agency says thieves are attracted to canada's abundant supply of high valued vehicles such as suvs and crossovers.

The bulk of them were given to the provinces and territories to distribute. In many places access to those free tests will soon come to an end. Heidi petracek explains why. >> Reporter: there used to be line-ups for free covid-19 rapid tests. Today it's no waiting for bill who picked one up at his local library in halifax. >> If we had been somewhere where we hear someone else has covid or if we have gotten -- you know had the sniffles or something we use the test. >> Reporter: but the days of ottawa sending millions of tests to the provinces are numbered. Health canada saying in a statement, given the current covid-19 outlook inventory levels and indicated testing demands, the federal government does not anticipate the need for additional federal procurements at this time. New brunswick took that as its queue to announce it will stop announce handing them out when supplies run out likely next month. Saskatchewan did the same in february. >> People who are wealthy can continue to buy them. >> That bothers one infection control epidemiologist who says rapid tests should still be be part of the plan. >> If we say we we are not going to have it anymore taking the word public out of public health. >> Nova scotia is planning its next steps as is alberta which stresses no decision has been made. Other provinces aren't saying much right now about what the plan is. Ontario, for example, would only say through a spokesperson that the province has tens of millions of rapid antigen tests available to the public and wouldn't say when they expire. Lab based testing by medical referral remains available and for one expert is the better tool because rapid tests perform differently for different people. >> The interpretation capacity has to improve and that means that the sensitivity of tests need to improve. >> Experts agree tests need to improve and detect other respiratory viruses like rsv and influenza. That innovation is in the works likely rendering these obsolete. Heidi petracek, "global news," halifax.
