Wireless Amber Alerts

Canada's Amber Alert system is hoping to reach millions of cellphone users by going wireless


The country's cellphone industry is joining with the RCMP and other police forces to offer free Amber Alerts to most wireless phone users. The alerts, which are issued to the public after a reported child abduction, will be sent as text messages to those who sign up for the service. 12 Canadian wireless providers are taking part so far.
