			It wont be so much about the inital EQ, its going to be how we all survive until help arrives (water, food, shelter, ect). If Abbottsford airport still has a functioning runway it wont be too bad, but if its damaged it will take a long time before help arrives. Roads/Bridges into the area will likely be out of commission, no airport means helicopters only....
 On the plus side, the probability of it happening anytime soon is minimal. Possible yes but not probable.
 
 Cali has been having EQ's for year and years. Those who think we are close because Cali just had one.....you FAIL

			Just curious, how many people here actually have a decent emergency kit with the basics?  Water, food, water proof matches, blankets, crank radio/flashlight.

On the other hand I have tons of chocolate and Vitasoy, that should take care of my food & water need.
