EMERGENCY SERVICES

 911 is not supported in Onaping Lake Area.

Call Provincial Communications Centres 24/7  1-888-310-1122

This number is also for general enquiries so you have to tell them that it is an emergency.


Know your location
Knowing your GPS location and better yet, (what3words), is all that is required. 
Write down your what3words, GPS location and Provincial Communications Centres 
phone number 1-888-310-1122 and place it where it is visible and accessable.

What is what3words?
What3words is a smartphone application for either iPhone or Android phones that will provide emergency services your exact location. What3words divides the world into 3 metre squares and gives each square unique combination of three words. When you open what3words it will automatically locate you and show three words separated by a period (.)
