notifynow RECOGNIZED AS WIRELESS COMMUNICATION BENEFIT

The Canadian Wireless Telecommunications Association (CWTA) has awarded the City’s mass alert system notifynow with a Connected to the Community award.  The presentation was made in Regina last evening.

“This recognition is a big pat on the back for the City and the Saskatoon Emergency Measures Organization,” says Ray Unrau, Director of Emergency Planning.

The CWTA offers the Connected to the Community award to organizations that improve the lives of Canadians with wireless technology.

“As we’ve said all along, notifynow will let residents know what to do, where to go, and what to expect during an emergency with a message sent directly to their landline, cell phone, email or in a text message,” Unrau says.
