Saint John To Test Emergency Alert System

Officials in Saint John will conduct a test of the city’s emergency alert and notification system on Thursday, Oct. 7.

The test by the Saint John Emergency Management Organization will be done late in the morning, according to a news release form the city.

Anyone who has signed up to receive emergency notifications and news from the city will get an email, voice, or text alert with the following message:

“EXERCISE, EXERCISE, EXERCISE. This is a test of the City of Saint John emergency notification system. No action is required. THIS IS ONLY A TEST.”

Residents who have not signed up to receive alerts and notifications from the city are being encouraged to do so.
