HALIFAX—The Canadian Armed Forces are warning Pokemon Go players, both in and out of uniform, not to search for Pokemon on military property. Players are encouraged to roam their city to visit so-called Pokestops to collect supplies and visit gyms to battle other players. Pokemon characters have also been spotted in Canadian police stations and hospitals, prompting polite requests that players stay safe, alert and respectful of their surroundings. The highly popular game sends players into the real world to search for the mythical digital pocket monsters, known as Pokemon, with their iPhones or Android devices. There have also been concerns about Pokemon fans playing at the former Nazi death camp Auschwitz and the 9/11 Memorial in New York City.
