[outages] Canadawide Rogers Wireless outage

[Rich Lafferty]

Rogers Wireless (one of Canada’s big three-or-so phone providers) is experiencing a Canada-wide outage, starting around 08:00 Eastern time (-0400) and still ongoing as of now (13:52). Affecting calls, text and wireless data, and specifically 911 callbacks. Home/business wired internet is unaffected.

Timing is particularly bad as a couple of provinces have opened COVID vaccinations up to new age groups as of this week and pharmacies are relying on text and calls to notify availability.
