A global technology outage linked to a faulty software update has had a ripple effect on Canadians.
Nancy Haslam, owner of Maximum Signs in Pontypool, Ont., which creates highway and traffic signs, says the outage prevented employees at her business from receiving their pay.
The widespread outage disrupted services and companies around the world Friday, including grounding flights and knocking banking and hospital systems offline. When she checked this morning, she still didn't see the payments, and soon found out other people were having problems getting their money as well. To help tide her over through the weekend, she borrowed money from her mother-in-law."I was trying to get my kids ready for camp, trying to borrow money," she said in a phone interview with CTVNews.ca.
