IMO the best thing to take with you is knowledge.
look up survival guides for building a fire, build shelter, gather fresh water, skills to determine what plants are edible... THEN put it to practice even if you dont need to.
try building a fire in heavy rain to see if YOU can do it. that way when the situation arises you KNOW you can do it and wont starve or freeze to death when the need for fire arises during a natural disaster that may never come.
the following is just a collection of items(not a complete list) i may bring with me depending on the type of disaster.
-1 hand gun with no extra ammo except what it can hold(not planning on using it)
-emergency multipurpose am/fm radio, usb charger(works on my i9100), hand crank or ac to charge unit.
-2x 2way radios.. i bought those on an NCIX sale.
-coleman cooler as a storage bin for stuff but can be used as a cooler for ice to store food longer
-a few personal tents and sleeping bags i stocked up when it was on clearance..
-camping equipment i collected over the years.
-i cannot trust to be able to access the internet in an event of a disaster so i have stored a collection of useful data. the data is what i feel is relevant to help me be be prepared for whatever arises. it is ever growing. (ie offline wikipedia)

no one mentioned to bring all the cash in the house?
assuming that not everyone pulls out a weapon to demand for goods, it's more valuable than credit card

So, when the "Big One" hits, it is not going to affect the rest of the world. How long will the people in the GVRD be stranded? It's not like a huge tsunami is going to wipe out all of Vancouver. I can see places like the North Shore, New West, or Coquitlam having landslides. Places like Richmond/Delta flooding or sinking, but nice neighbourhoods like the East End and FV should be safe, yes?
I'm just glad I'm not living in the West End (not because of hipsters, LOL).
Do people know where the Emergency Response Routes are? Do people even know what they are?
Some of the people I've talked to have this notion that when an earthquake hits, they need to get the hell out of the area ASAP.
As for guns, it's cool and all, but it's not like the Godless Commies, zombies, or aliens from Dimension X are invading.
I wAnder how earthquake resistant houses and buildings are in Vancouver.
On a side note do you guys know where the shut off valves are for gas, water, electrical, etc?
BTW, I'm glad I live in a neighbourhood with lots of Italian families. Figs, tomatoes, peppers, and grapes everywhere.
