No a single fiber bundle cut doesn=E2=80=99t cause this level of outage.

I am at a family reunion in Nova Scotia and =E2=80=93 Bell internet is down, all =
cell services are down, most land lines are down and 911 services are proble=
matic.  A lot of flights in Halifax have been cancelled (impacting our reuni=
on).  Downdetector.com shows a lot, but do not see any details on outages. =20

Looks more like a Cyber incident.  At the moment cable service at the cotta=
ge is still up=E2=80=A6.  Was in town and all the banks were closed except RBC.  O=
nly one gas station on the highway was operational.

Thanks,
