Earthquake Reported in Eastern Ontario, Quebec

An earthquake centred northwest of Ottawa has rattled
buildings and nerves across a wide swath of Ontario and Quebec.
Earthquakes Canada has revised its original report, saying it
registered a 5.1-magnitude temblor with an epicentre located about
21 kilometres northeast of Shawville, Que., about an hour’s drive
outside the national capital.
The original report said a 4.8 magnitude quake was centred near
the town of Braeside, Ont.
Less than 10 minutes later, a 4.2-magnitude aftershock was also
recorded.
The quake touched off an eruption of reaction on Twitter as users
reported buildings shaking in Ottawa for several seconds; it was
also felt in Toronto and Hamilton.
Ontario Provincial Police in Arnprior, Ont., not far from the
epicentre, say they have received no reports of damage.
