A magnitude 5.7 earthquake has been recorded about 105 miles (169 kilometres) west of Ucluelet off the coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada.
A National Earthquake Information Centre geophysicist in Golden, Colorado, USA, says there is no danger of a tsunami from the shallow quake. It hit at 12:05pm Saturday.
Geophysicist Rafael Abreu says he doesn't expect to see damage with this quake based on its distance from shore and the low intensity at which it was felt.
A handful of residents in Lopez Island, Washington, USA, as well as Vancouver and Victoria, British Columbia, reported feeling it.
