A small earthquake has rattled a few residents along B.C.'s south coast.
The Pacific Geoscience Centre in Victoria reports a 2.9 magnitude shaker occurred in the southern Georgia Strait at 6:47 a.m. Tuesday morning.
The quake was centred in the ocean off Galiano Island, 19 kilometres west of the Vancouver suburb of Tsawwassen.
Residents to the west on Salt Spring Island and in Duncan, on Vancouver Island, report feeling the jolt.
No damage is reported.
A 3.2 magnitude quake occurred last Tuesday, deep below the U.S. San Juan Islands, just south of the latest temblor, and was lightly felt across Greater Victoria and the southern Gulf Islands.
