There will be a test of Ontario’s emergency alerting system later this week.
Originally scheduled for Wednesday, the test will now take place on Thursday at 1:55 p.m.
It will feature an alert message broadcast on the radio, television and through compatible wireless devices.
Officials say the test is taking place to ensure the system is working properly, and ensure that residents are familiar with how the system works.
This is Emergency Preparedness Week in Ontario.
