@Mattsgottaknow For one thing, only ONE province has any sort of emergency population warning system in place, and two, if Canada ever puts a national one in place, there's going to be bugs and failures galore after it goes live.

It's unavoidable.

Failures in numerous places means one thing... They WILL do this again soon.

It failed here in Texas too, our primary station in the area didn't receive any audio down the 'pipe' from FEMA:

Just 'dead air'. The station confirmed that they did not receive audio from FEMA in newscasts beginning about 2:30 PM CST.
