Earthquake Cottage at Multiplex

Apr 12, 2024 | 8:50 AM

An earthquake preparedness program hits Port Alberni today.
The BC Earthquake Alliance will be setting up their earthquake cottage so people can feel what it’s like to experience a magnitude 8 quake.
Teron Moore, the Vice-president of the BCEA says the event is about education and preparation
“What would it look like to be better prepared and how can I make one next step to make myself just that much more prepared for that eventual earthquake that is not a matter of if, but a matter of when,” he said.
The earthquake cottage will be set up at the Alberni Multiplex this afternoon from 1 to 4 pm.
