Cellular Service Disruption

Emergency Management Office

The province’s Emergency Management Office (EMO) is aware of cell and landline outages and the Provincial Coordination Centre has been activated.

EMO is working with emergency service providers, like fire departments, ambulance, and community emergency management teams to provide support in any way possible.

Emergency numbers 811 and 911 are working but the best way to reach them is through a landline (depending on your service provider). If possible, please check on your neighbours.

EMO will co-ordinate with cell service providers to determine whether they need supports to restore service. Follow on Twitter @NSEMO and Facebook at www.facebook.com/nsgov/ for the latest updates and information from the province.
