CTV News reports:
All 79 locations of pharmacy and retail chain London Drugs are shut down Sunday, and there is no estimate on when they will be back open.
A customer service representative told CTV News “all of our systems are down” and the stores are unable to process any transactions for the time being.
London Drugs locations in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba are closed, save for one pharmacy in Alberta open for emergencies.

In a tweet posted this afternoon, London Drugs described the situation as an “operational issue.” That could pretty much mean anything, but by now, it would be understandable to suspect another ransomware attack has his the healthcare sector.
This post will be updated when more information is disclosed.
