Back Up and At'em

It seems that Statistics Canada's website is back online and fully functional, apparently yesterday's service disruption was not an indication that the agency was calling it quits because of political tension. So if the Okanagan College library was right, and it was just a routine service issue, the issue of insufficient information still remains. Why would Statistics Canada not include an announcement indicating that their site was undergoing routine maintenance operations and would be out of commission for several hours? Maybe this was too easy? Not enough intrigue would have been caused?
