Canada 'could expect' massive earthquake at any time
Updated: Wed Nov. 09 2011 15:09:44
The Canadian Press
OTTAWA — Canada could expect a major earthquake at any time and a top geophysicist says it should prepare itself if it is to avoid the kind of disasters that befell Japan, Italy and China in recent years.
John Cassidy, head of earthquake seismology at the Geological Survey of Canada, says large earthquakes have hit parts of Canada numerous times -- and will again.
"Certainly we could expect an earthquake at any time and should be prepared for a large earthquake at any time in Canada," Cassidy said in an interview prior to delivering a lecture at Carleton University.
"We've seen many over the years, going back in time."
He says the most vulnerable region is the West Coast, which has been hit with giant, magnitude-9.0 quakes 13 times in the last 6,000 years, the last of them 311 years ago.
B.C. is in the window in which a massive earthquake is more likely to occur, he says, but he acknowledges that window spans 200 to 850 years.
Predicting earthquakes with any degree of consistency, Cassidy says, remains next to impossible.
"Unfortunately, we cannot predict earthquakes, either here or anywhere," he said. "There's no consistent, successful way to predict exactly when earthquakes will occur and how large."
The only thing people can do is be prepared, he says.
Canada is identifying vulnerable areas, estimating potential magnitude, frequency and type of quakes. Using that information, planners can draft appropriate building codes and construct quake-resistant infrastructure to minimize the damage. ...............http://edmonton.ctv.ca/servlet/an/local ... montonHome

4.3 magnitude quake shakes Okanagan
By EVAN DUGGAN, VANCOUVER SUN November 18, 2011 8:07
A 4.3 magnitude earthquake shook parts of the Okanagan Valley and northern Washington state early this morning.
So far there have been no reports of damage from the quake, felt in Penticton, Rock Creek, Kelowna and other communities in south-central B.C., according to Natural Resources Canada.
The epicentre of the quake was measured about 9 km from Riverside, Washington which is roughly 80 km from the Canada-U.S. border.
The quake was at a depth of about 5 km.
Allan Heal, who works at the Buy-Low grocery store in Oliver, B.C., said he noticed the tremor shortly after he got up this morning. "I walked into the kitchen and the windows were shaking."
The shake was pretty mild, he said. "From the shaking I felt, I don't think there will be any damage."
