Alert Ready Test on November 25, 2020

[Vivian_Y]

Hi Community,

On November 25, 2020, provincial and territorial governments will be conducting another test of the Alert Ready system. Alert Ready is designed to deliver critical and potentially life-saving alerts to Canadians. Test alerts educate Canadians on what an emergency alert will look and sound like in the event of a life-threatening situation.

The test alert will be distributed on TV, Radio and wireless. However, not all Canadians will receive the test alert on their mobile device. This may occur for a variety of reasons; device compatibility, connection to an LTE network, cell tower coverage and device software and settings.

To learn more about the Alert Ready service, what devices are supported, and the test schedule for your province or territory, visit alertready.ca.

I actually like these alert announcements.

It lets me test and fine-tune the finicky SMS-CB stuff in my modded messaging app, lol. The more heads-up I get the more devices I can get ready for the event.

Thanks for the alert about the alert.  Can you send out another alert to remind us of the upcoming alert?
