More than 890,000 calls to 911 came through in Alberta throughout the past year and these are some of the most outrageous ones:
- "My phone settings are all in another language, how can I change it back?"
- "Can you bring me a hamburger? I am hungry and cannot drive!"
- "I need you to stop my teenage son from vaping!"
- "My neighbour is plowing snow incorrectly!"
- "The neighbour's kids strum the guitar every time I go for a smoke. No matter what time of day, this has been ongoing for three months since the start of lockdown."
Also, RCMP said that multiple people called to report "suspicious satellites" during a SpaceX launch.
The RCMP is reminding people that 911 should only be dialled in emergency situations "when public or personal safety is at risk or a crime is in progress."
