I'm in Vancouver, but whenever there's a severe weather warning in Quebec, I get notified, sometimes multiple times in an hour. I've got location on to approximate itself based on WiFi location, but that doesn't appear to work.
Does anyone know how I can stop these alerts, or change them to be a bit more regional-specific?

We're working through a bug where the Emergency Alert System wasn't registering location appropriately. Obviously you don't want alerts that are in a different part of the country - so this should be resolved shortly. There is no option to disable the Emergency Alert System - this is a mandatory requirement to provide as part of the TV license from the CRTC.
