Ottawa will match donations up to $10 million

As earthquake relief efforts continue in Syria and Turkey, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says the federal government will match donations made to the Canadian Red Cross, up to $10 million. 

The death toll from this week's earthquake is now over 11,000. 

Rescuers continue to look for survivors in the rubble, but time is running out.
