Thanks. Perhaps they are thinking of a M~7 shallow crustal earthquake not being as bad as the offshore M9 subduction earthquake (the big one). See a description of the 3 types of earthquakes in southwest BC (also applies to WA, OR and northern CA): www.earthquakescanada.nrcan.gc.ca/pprs-pprp/pu...
Maybe. I’m aware as I’ve recently moved to this danger zone…
