All of Manitoba's government websites are down after what they say was scheduled updates that took the websites offline.

All websites read "Welcome to manitoba.ca / Bienvenue au manitoba.ca. This Manitoba government website is currently unavailable. The site is offline for maintenance and will be available shortly."

Manitoba Central Services advised the maintenance to take place, but since then, all government websites have been down. Websites include Manitoba Child and Family Services, the Department of Finance, and Manitoba Housing.

"Work to resolve the issue is underway and will be completed as soon as possible," the government of Manitoba's statement says.

The sites have been offline since Saturday.

A contracted service has been asked to fix the outage.
