The focus of today’s proceedings was the structure of the Alert Ready system in Nova Scotia at the time of the mass casualty in April, 2020, and some changes that have been incorporated since then. There were two brief Foundational Document presentations, followed by two witnesses from the NS Emergency Management Office (EMO). Though this was not obvious from the information provided on the MCC website, the presentations were not intended to cover what actually happened (or did not happen) on April 18-19, 2020, but rather simply what was available in terms of emergency alerts.
