VANCOUVER – A 6.7 magnitude earthquake has struck off the coast of Port Hardy on Vancouver Island, according to the United States Geological Survey.

It struck at 8:10 p.m. PDT and the epicentre was located about 91 km south off the coast, at a depth of 23 km.

Residents in Port Hardy said the ground shook for about 35 to 40 seconds during the preliminary earthquake. Groceries were knocked off the shelves at the local Overwaitea store.

People are saying they felt it as far away as Langley and Kelowna.
