Public Alerting System

What you need to know

We're using the Altertable app to send alerts about significant local emergencies.

Alertable is for anyone at any stage of emergency preparedness. When the city issues an alert for a significant emergency, you will receive clear and direct instructions on staying safe.

Download Alertable

The Alertable app is free and can be downloaded from your mobile phone, tablet, computer, or smart speaker.

It's easy to get alerts. Just download the free Alertable app for IOS or Android smartphones.

Alert Ready

Alertable and Alert Ready are not the same. Alert Ready is a Canada-wide system that allows government officials in each province and territory to issue emergency alerts through compatible wireless devices and major television and radio broadcasters.

You do not need an app to receive alerts through the Alert Ready system.
