Thousands of Canadians were offline Wednesday morning due to a widespread Bell internet outage.
The company confirmed on social media that service for some Quebec and Ontario customers may be interrupted and said it is working to resolve the issue.
“Our network team is investigating and we’ll provide updates as soon as they’re available,” a spokesperson told National Post via email.
Some customers in Ontario and Quebec may be experiencing an Internet service interruption. We are working to restore service as quickly as possible. Thank you for your patience.
