Earthquakes jolt Canada, India, Papua New Guinea and Chile. Emergency measures were

implemented in Canada’s Ontario-Quebec regions after the largest quake since 1935 to ever

shake the area occurred on Wednesday afternoon, June 23. Measuring 5.0 on the Richter scale

and centered 38 kilometers north of Cumberland, Ontario, the temblor caused damage in some

Canadian locations while it was felt in US areas as distant as New York City and Cleveland,

Ohio where people were evacuated from downtown buildings. On Thursday and Friday, India’s

Nicobar Islands were rumbled by three quakes, all approximately 150 kilometers southwest

of Mohean, measuring 5.4, 5.0 and 5.1 on the Richter scale, respectively. A powerful 6.1-magnitude

temblor also struck on Thursday off the coast of Papua New Guinea, 110 kilometers southwest

of Kimbe in West New Britain province, while across the globe in Chile, a 5.3-magnitude

quake was recorded in the Tarapacá region the same day. There were fortunately no reports

of casualties or tsunamis for any of the quakes.

We are grateful for the safety of the many quake-affected residents as we also pray for

the calming of such disruptions through humanity’s more caring and Earth-stabilizing ways�
