Why do I keep getting emergency alerts from Alberta on my Telus TV during the NHL playoffs? I live in BC, 1200 kms away. I have a photo of the alert.

      Thank you, it's happened several times over the last year. My sister who lives in Vernon was watching on Optik TV and never got any alerts.

        Gotcha. Our team is now investigating. There were a few examples raised here over the past few days from people in BC watching a hockey game on an AB feed getting those AB alerts, etc. While it's only a small number of people affected, we're still looking into getting it taken care of!
