Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.

Sarah Palin reported that her house did not remain intact. No deaths reported, largely due to Building Codes being adhered to.

Heard about it earlier and just went and read about it. Nothing has been reported on this quake affecting Northern BC or even Haida Gwaii.

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.

I went and looked up the distance, driving it is 499miles between Anchorage and Whitehorse which is in the Yukon. So Haida Gwaii those islands are even farther. I am hazarding because the quake and the aftershocks are happening inland this is why nothing has been noted in Northern BC or Canada.

Man, I keep forgetting the scale on those lame maps (most Americans are far worse about understanding the scale). Texas is the 2nd largest U.S. State, and if Alaska was cut in half, Texas would become the 3rd largest. Alaska's distance between farthest points is greater than the width of our continent from Pacific at San Diego to Atlantic at the Port in Georgia. This might be because our National maps make Alaska look the same size as Hawaii, about as big as Arizona. Thanks for letting us know Canada was not impacted. I couldn't find online info about it.
