Earlier today, internet outage reports affecting Bell services surged past 100,000 across Canada, with Ontario and Quebec hit hardest. By mid-morning, that number dropped to just over 2,000, but the incident sparked concerns about infrastructure reliability for businesses and consumers alike. Even Bell’s support site briefly went offline, amplifying user frustration and spotlighting how vulnerable even top-tier providers can be.
For decision-makers in mid to large-sized companies, the implications extend beyond momentary disruptions. Dependence on a single provider for both internet and mobile connectivity introduces operational risks. Whether it's remote teams losing access to cloud tools or customers experiencing downtime on your platform, service interruptions can compound into revenue losses and brand damage. As enterprise solutions become more integrated and AI-powered systems rely on persistent uptime, the stakes grow higher.
