It lasted pretty long but wasn't the worst shaking experienced before
Didn't get an alert though, maybe only people on the island did

For me it felt pretty brief. At most a 2 - 3 second affair. There was also a low but loud rumble that happened along with the shake, and that was a little surprising.
Back in the day when I was in an apartment at Port Moody close to the Moody Station, trains run throughout the day, and the whole apartment would shake / vibrate until the train has passed. Both the noise and the shaking would be bigger than what I have just felt today.

i was talking to my neighbour in their shop and felt it. i definitely thought it was a weird feeling but i chalked it up to it being some of their machinery running or maybe a big truck as gumby said. i felt like a side to side rhythm for a few seconds

It was very brief, I felt the vibration but I heard the rumbling much more. Similar to a train, plane, or big truck type of feeling.
Also my lights are flickering inb4 my power goes out Quote:

I can see Sechelt across the straight from my house. I just heard a fast moving rumble and then a bang. I really thought it was an explosion or something until my phone told me otherwise.
