Are earthquakes and volcanoes in British Columbia extinct?
Answer Hi Keith, Thanks for your questions. The answers, however, are somewhat a matter of opinion. Therefor, I suggest that you review some of the available info on the subject locally, and decide for yourself. A couple of good places to start are as follows, from the University of Victoria: http://ohs.uvic.ca/emergencymgmt/earthquakes.html http://geophys.seos.uvic.ca/equakes.html These sites talk about the incidence of earthquakes in the region, and should help you understand the phenomena as it affects us here in Victoria.
