Practicing what to do in an emergency is an important way to help keep ourselves and our communities safe. The Great ShakeOut is the world’s largest earthquake drill, with more than 60 million people expected to participate globally.
Today at 10:15 am, we participated in the Great British Columbia ShakeOut, a province-wide earthquake preparedness drill that encourages people to practice the “Drop, Cover, and Hold On” response. Here in B.C., more than 500,000 people registered to take part and strengthen their earthquake preparedness.
