It's quite common in Nova Scotia. During the mass shooting, emergency alerts were sent out exclusively via Twitter: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/rcmp-twitter-aler...


Which is a bad idea. They should be using the damn emergency alert system.


That's sad. I think for the ones in my area while they may use Twitter they tend to have some publicly accessible alternative.
