911 service has been restored and is operating normally.

Nova Scotians can now resume using 911 as their primary emergency contact number for immediate police, fire or medical assistance.

The intermittent outages earlier today affected some wireless and VoIP users and were linked to telecommunications network issues. Emergency officials worked closely with telecommunications providers and Public Safety Answering Points throughout the disruption to monitor the situation and ensure alternative contact methods were available.

Thank you to emergency communications personnel, EHS, police, fire and emergency management partners, telecommunications providers — and Nova Scotians — for your patience and cooperation.

If you are experiencing ongoing issues connecting to 911, contact your telecommunications service provider.

Significant 911 service disruptions are extremely rare. . If this occurs, in case of emergency, Nova Scotians are asked to contact local emergency service provider:
- Emergency Health Services: 1-888-346-9999

In an emergency, always call 911 when service is available.
