The Alberta government is vowing to examine its emergency alert processes when a vulnerable person goes missing.
An Amber Alert was issued about 48 hours after Parker went missing, and only once the province issued a unique exemption to the alert criteria.
THE CANADIAN PRESS/Bill GravelandNow the provincial government says it will review its emergency alert processes, including an evaluation of its Amber Alert criteria, though it did not provide specifics.
Some argue the 48-hour delay before the Amber Alert was issued cost valuable time.
Parker went missing from a day home in Calgary’s north end on July 16.
