Alberta Emergency Alerts

Alberta Emergency Alerts is a provincially run emergency alert system that provides information on disasters throughout Alberta. They are designed to send out information over radio, television, websites and directly to residents via personalized contact systems.

In the near future, this system will also connect directly with a federal alert notifications system, providing even more information directly to personal devices. Therefore, on May 4, 2022, High River joins other municipalities in this region and across Alberta by subscribing to this provincial alert system. In this way, we are connected through one common emergency portal.
