This is the best summary I could come up with:


Retail and pharmacy chain London Drugs says it was the "victim of a cybersecurity incident" Sunday and has shuttered its stores across Western Canada until further notice.

The retailer, which is headquartered in B.C., says the closure is out of "an abundance of caution" and that it immediately took measures to counter the attack once it was discovered.

"At this time, we have no reason to believe that customer or employee data has been impacted," the company said in a statement emailed to CBC News around 5:30 p.m. PT on Sunday.

In a previous statement to CBC News Sunday afternoon, the retailer had said the closures were caused by an "operational issue."

London Drugs said it has retained third-party experts to help contain, fix and forensically investigate the incident.

"We want to assure you that this incident is the utmost priority for us," the company said in its statement, thanking customers for their patience and promising update them as it progressed in resolving the issue.
