Rogers said it is working with Calgary police on the incident. Rogers says outages caused by vandalism, including attempted copper theft, can be very complex to fix, requiring fibre splicing, which is very specialized and detailed work. Outage 'drastically impacts' Calgary businessesMany businesses and organizations around the city were hit by the outage, including the Calgary Board of Education. Its website was down on Monday, which it said was due to an unplanned technical outage resulting from an issue with its service provider, Rogers.
