Montreal to test industrial warning sirens on Friday

Montreal plans to test industrial warning sirens on Friday to assess their effectiveness in alerting the public during emergencies involving hazardous materials. This is part of the city's efforts to enhance public safety by making residents more aware and prepared for potential industrial accidents. The sirens will be tested in areas with a higher concentration of industrial sites to ensure they provide adequate coverage and reach. Residents are being informed about the tests to avoid unnecessary panic and understand the importance of such measures in safeguarding public welfare.
