Canada’s recent weather events and natural disasters

Mabels return have played a cataclysmic role in spurring the creation
of Strathmore’s first local notification system.
Discussions for Strathmore Alerts – a communication
tool to distribute information and instructions within
Page 13 the town and area during an emergency – began rough-
ly three years ago.
On April 25 of this year, the system became public
during Strathmore’s first night market, with a total of
295 residents signed up to date.
“We’re seeing so much change in the weather and
lots of different other events happening around us and
Canada that it’s more beneficial for us to have our own
notification system,” said Catherine Walsh, emergency
management coordinator with community services at
Getting checked the Town of Strathmore.
“I think at times there’s lots of miscommunication
posted, especially now that we are all about social me-
dia. There’s lots of misinterpretation of what is actually
happening in the community, so this is a way to clarify
all that.”
Walsh added that providing the community with the
same information at the same time is critical, especially
when some members of community aren’t using social
media or smartphones. Therefore, the system is avail-
