Coming soon to your community !
What is Next Generation 9-1-1?Next Generation 9-1-1 (NG9-1-1) is when most 911 call centres in Canada will migrate to internet protocol (IP)-based technology from older analog type technology. The initial migration will create the base infrastructure required to provide additional tools and information for first responders. In the future, new capabilities will be announced that will allow the public calling 9-1-1 to provide additional information for first responders to serve them better.

How is NG9-1-1 going to affect me?As a 9-1-1 caller, you will still dial 9-1-1 from your cellular phone, smartphone, your residence or your business. You will not have to switch to any new services or install new apps on your devices.
Some future capabilities will only be available to smartphone users and eventually, to other smart devices. |
