A little over a week ago, two other earthquakes hit the South Coast, one off the coast of Vancouver Island and another on the Sunshine Coast.

“An earthquake like this does not tell us that another one is about to happen,” John Cassidy with Natural Resources Canada told Global News on Monday morning.

“There’s no link… it’s a really small earthquake compared to the 7s and the 8s that have happened in the past. It’s really just a drop in the bucket.”
