I am starting the process to immigrate to Canada from the US. Maybe unsurprisingly I find I have no ideas where I would like to live. I do enjoy mountains, and don't want to be in the heart of a city.

I definitely require high speed internet access. Other than that, I could use some help! EDIT: Mountains are not a deal breaker. Water would be nice, but sea level rise is a concern.
EDIT: Oh, Come ONNNN!!!!

Might I recommend Milo Alberta? Super cheap. They use an air raid siren every day to announce lunch (the town is closed other then the restaurant 12-1).
If you want something with mountains, you likely can not afford that.
Try Drummheller if you have not seen it its in the badlands. Looks like this
As a siren enthusiast, I love when towns still carry on the traditional noon siren blasts. That doesn't happen much here in Ontario anymore.
FYI, Milo's siren isn't an air raid siren, small sirens like Milo's (a Federal Model 2 in this case) are typically fire sirens used to summon volunteer firefighters to the station during a fire call. Milo's is on the fire department, so it's probably the fire siren. They're usually tested daily or weekly to make sure they work when needed.
Odd they always called it an air raid siren, but I also know it has been replaced a few times now. Might have been one at one point.
A lot of people just call every siren an "air raid siren" even though no siren has been built for that purpose in 40 years in North America lol. It's entirely possible they had an actual air raid siren at one point, probably built by Canadian Line Materials.
My guess is I was and then changed out over and over until people just assumed like you said that it is an "air raid" siren.
