Earthquake measures at magnitude of 6.7 and is felt in Vancouver Island today

Officials at the Pacific Geoscience Centre have confirmed a magnitude of 6.7 earthquake has struck the Northwest coast of Vancouver Island. People are reporting buildings swaying for extended periods from the Fraser Valley to Campbell River at around 12:41 PT p.m., but there are no reports of damage. The earthquake was too small to trigger a tsunami or cause more than small damage, but they say aftershocks could be felt in the coming days.
