A closer look at the day's most notable stories with The National's Jonathon Gatehouse: Facebook has some big-money backers for its new cryptocurrency; Canada faces big challenges in closing the gap between its emissions and its climate change targets.
Yeah, okay. Isn't this is the same company that couldn't keep our personal information safe and now they want us to use their version of crypto currency cause "it's perfectly safe"?
