A cyberattack, according to the Canadian energy corporation Suncor, was to blame for the widespread disruptions that shut down services over the weekend.

The business has alerted the necessary authorities and is taking action while collaborating with outside experts to investigate and fix the matter.

Problems were reported in Calgary, Ottawa, Toronto, and several other significant Canadian cities. Petro-Canada finally turned to Twitter to recognize the problems and to state that they were being fixed.
