I can't either, but the reality right now seems to be that 911 calls are failing for anyone on a Rogers cellphone.
This is par for the course. These people chose to deal with Rogers despite knowing the consequences. It is like if you bought a Rogers Snowblower and it did not work. That would mean that people who bought the Rogers Snowblower will not be using it to get rid of the snow that is preventing them from leaving their house. Mutatis mutandis when Rogers is down things that are Rogers dependent will not work. Some people are so retarded it is astonishing! -- (CAUTION) You are advised that if you attack my person or property, you will be put down in accordance with the provisions of section 34 & 35 of the Criminal Code respectively.

I have seen anecdotal reports that the mobile network is in a half broken state that phones remain registered to, so a 911 call will attempt and then fail.
This is unlike what would happen if you had a US/Canada cellphone with battery power but no SIM card in it that would search for any available network in RF range for a 911 call if needed.

According to Cloudflare Radar <https://radar.cloudflare.com/asn/812?date_filter=last_24_hours> , Rogers BGP announcements spiked massively to levels 536,777% higher than normal (343,601 vs 64 normally) just minutes before the outage. I would not be surprised if this happened to be the culprit.

In the early hours of the morning around 2-3am my modem got hit with a configuration update that caused a DHCP release that wasn't renewed for about two hours, after rollback the connection was fine for 3 hours before this network wide outage.
Maybe a failed night time update was attempted again during office hours, I've heard daytime guys are still WFH and night shift is in building.
I expect we'll never get a real explanation. Rogers is notorious for withholding any type of helpful or technical information.
