(Changes headline, rewrites paragraph 1 to specify outage was in Toronto)
Jan 4 (Reuters) -
Canada's Rogers Communications said its services are back up after users around Toronto suffered intermittent service disruptions on Thursday evening.
"Some customers in parts of Greater Toronto Area may have experienced a brief degradation to their residential services this evening due to a technical issue," the company said in a statement. "Services have now been restored for all customers."
Downdetector, which tracks outages by collating status reports from several sources, including user-submitted errors on its platform, showed just over 55,000 user reports at the peak of the outage, which lasted less than an hour.
