Public Safety

SaskAlert is the Government of Saskatchewan’s emergency public alerting program that provides critical information on emergencies in real time, so you can take action to protect yourself, your family and your property.

An emergency alert issued though SaskAlert will let you know:

• what the emergency is,
• where it is happening,
• provide instructions for you to follow to stay safe, and
• advise you when the incident is over.

Knowing what to do is an important part of being prepared. The following are some of the risks in Waldheim and how to prepare for different situations.
