ONTARIO - A test of the Alert Ready system will be taking place today.

It's Canada's National Public Alerting System and it notifies the public about emergency situations in their immediate area.

The Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) requires one test of the Alert Ready system per year. It usually takes place during Emergency Preparedness Week in May and/or in November.
