speaking personally?
It probably was.
My reasoning comes from a rather disturbing exchange I had with an
employee about the sites lack of inclusive design.
The sense I got is that those in charge took a lets build things with
lots of third party input based on what is the latest trend.
instead of building a solid secure, progressive enhancement based floor.
Articles I saw on the cp24 site hinted that likely some staffer
downloaded a file or opened an attachment.
if you trust your computer foundations to third parties, again
speaking personally, then you cannot swiftly put things back together.
Just my 2 cents,

In the libraries defense.
Lots of bigger and supposedly more secure organizations have been hit by
ransomware attacks.
Phishing is getting more and more sophisticated and all it takes is a
momentary lapse.

What is going on with the library website?
There was a CBC article that said there was a ransomware attack, but
it's
been down for a week and it's hard to imagine why it would take so
long to
recover unless their infrastructure was much weaker than I would expect.
