Earlier this month, london drug stores reopened after a cyberattack forced their closure for more than a week. Well, we now know the group claiming to be behind the attack is demanding a multi-million dollar ransom. As aaron mcarthur reports, this news comes as another high profile cyber attack has been made public, this time on a health authority. >> The methods are not subtle. Pay up or the data is dumped on the dark web. London drugs, the latest corporation to be targeted by the group known as lockbit, the hackers demanding $25 million from the richmond based company to retrieve its employee data by international standards. London drugs, a small company, experts say it doesn't matter. >> The gulf organizations are the most likely to pay up. So that is to say, organizations that are going to be under significant pressure to get their systems back up and running. >> All 79 london drug stores were shut down at the end of april for more than a week to deal with a cyber attack. The company has finally confirmed what happened and despite claims from lockbit, it offered $8 million in ransom. London drugs says it is unable and unwilling to pay, saying we acknowledge these criminals may leak london drugs corporate files. This is deeply distressing.

Without direct access to the information on other companies remain vulnerable. >> The chief operating officer has been pretty tight lipped on exactly how this took place, what was happening and we don't want other companies to, get into that same issue and we need to know. >> London drugs is paying up to two years worth of credit monitoring for its employees, potentially compromised experts say everyone should pay close attention to their online profiles after these kinds of attacks.

Well last week on our show, if you recall, we had a group on called school strike for climate halifax who were demanding the provincial government take climate change more seriously in the wake of scrapping the coastal protection act. The youth said that after having several meetings with the government on this subject, they are incredibly frustrated that the act was not passed and upset with the minister for giving them a false sense of hope that it would pass well. The department of environment and climate change was watching tv. Our show, and reached out to get the minister on our show to respond to that interview. So here he is. Tim holman is the minister of environment and climate change and joining us on "global" news morning. Good morning, minister. How are you? >> Good, good. How are you paul? >> I'm doing very well. So let's get right into it, I guess. First of all, thanks for watching the show. And for joining us this morning with your response. My guest last week said they felt pretty confident after meetings with you that this act would pass, but it did not. And now they feel betrayed and ignored. So what happened between those meetings with them and eventually the move to scrap the act earlier this year? >> Well, first off, I want to commend, young nova scotians for being so engaged in public policy, you know, i, as minister, I highly value their input. That's that's why I established the youth climate council here in nova scotia. A lot of analysis went into, you know, how coastal protection, should unfold in this province. And in the end, as government, we decided an action plan was best suited, because when that act was passed in 2019, you didn't have the environmental goals and climate change reduction act. We didn't even have a climate plan in 2019. We didn't have a clean energy plan. So no coastal protection is one big important component in our overall climate strategy. And I want to assure all nova scotians that we take the protection of our coastlines very, very seriously. That's why we've deployed immediately resources for coastal protection. That's why we are now actively collaborating and working with our municipalities, who will zone, coastal protection, they're responsible for, for zoning, and we want to work with them and partner with them to make sure nova scotians do not build in hazardous areas. And then, of course, we support local informed decision making. We've put in place, the information nova scotians need to know where not to build. And we put in place navigators to help them interpret that information. So there's lots happening. >> Well, according to an article I read from dal, the lengthy disclaimer you need to agree to before you can access any kind of map online, they say, immediately erodes the trustworthiness of the whole thing. And they also say, moreover, why people may trust any good news they see in its data. They may still be at risk due to the tools, many data and design flaws. So any response to some of the opinions on the tools that are available? >> And certainly there's a diversity of opinion on how coastal protection should take place. And, you know, we've we've implemented a very comprehensive balanced plan that's based on science and the science we use comes from the international panel on climate change through the united nations. So this is very reputable data. And of course, I mean, our coastline is very diverse constantly changing, so we'll be updating the information, of the known hazardous areas, will be scaling that up. But nova scotians can have confidence in this plan. Young nova scotians in
