Cogeco also confirmed its services are impacted in several regions. “If you are affected by a power outage, the batteries in your modems will allow the telephone service to operate for a few hours, but we recommend that you bring another telephone in case of emergency,” the company tweeted.
Dear customers,
Please note that our services are affected in several regions due to bad weather and power outages. Our technicians are monitoring the situation carefully and will do everything necessary to ensure that your services are restored as quickly as possible.

Bell tweeted that it will be providing updates on outages as they come.
To our customers in Ontario, Québec and Atlantic, stay safe. There is never an ideal time for a storm, but over the holidays it can be extra tough. Rest assured, we will be here throughout the holidays to keep you updated on any potential storm impacts to our network.
