Colby Cosh provides some guidance to the alert levels. You can tell that it's not a real government document from this part:
Remember, the government can only protect you from terrorists, not from yourself! (N.B.: government protection from terrorists may vary in quality.)
I would love to see the government not trying to protect us from ourselves, but I don't think that's going to happen any time soon. Cosh lives in Canada, which is worse about that than our own government. Actually, it's worth remembering that pretty much every government is worse than ours (very few, sadly, are better than Canada's).
