Alert Ready is a Canada-wide program that allows provincial officials to issue emergency alerts. These alerts are broadcast on TV, radio, and compatible cell phones to provide urgent public safety information during life-threatening emergencies. You do not need to subscribe to these alerts. Alert Ready compliments and does not replace the need for Richmond BC Alert. Register above to receive Richmond-specific information during an emergency.
