Wireless Test Alerts Coming Nov. 15 in These Provinces and Territories

The next Alert Ready Test is coming this month to compatible wireless devices in each province and territory. The federal government will conduct the test which is managed by Pelmorex, the parent company of The Weather Network. It is not possible to disable these alerts in Canada.

The test alerts will hit TV, radio and wireless LTE devices. The alert is loud if your phone is not on silent and your phone will also vibrate.

The following provinces and territories will get Alert Ready Tests on November 15, 2023:

  • British Columbia: 1:55 PM PST
  • Manitoba: 1:55 PM CST
  • New Brunswick: 10:55 AM AST
  • Newfoundland & Labrador: 10:55 AM NST
  • Northwest Territories: 1:55 PM MST
  • Nova Scotia: 1:55 PM AST
  • Nunavut: 2:00 PM EST
  • Ontario: 12:55 PM EST
  • Prince Edward Island: 12:55 PM AST
  • Quebec: 1:55 PM EST
  • Saskatchewan: 1:55 PM CST
  • Yukon: 1:55 PM MST
  • Alberta: No test

Wireless alerts previously took place back in May as part of Emergency Preparedness Week.

Everywhere but Alberta. Can this be for political reasons? Either a test is needed or it is not.

Always more testing but never action. Always certain provinces but not others.
Seems this government has an agenda, who knew!
Trudeau must go

Someone needs to remind Ontario not to do it at 2AM (twice).
