What type of siren is that?

I found a ton of Canadian News Articles from between 1960-1994 about sirens, but sadly it needs payment to watch it.

There's more, but it's too much so I didn't linked it.

I'm not sure, definitely a CLM of some kind. I'm gonna take a wild guess and say it's a 20/24 judging from the size of the box.

Yea probably.

There was a siren in Brooks, Alberta at one point. Descriptions from there detail that it could be an STH-10. Horns all around, one layer of horns, gray, etc.

+Other towns in Alberta also had STH10s so It would make sense.

Were they used for Civil Defense?
