Quebec and Ontario residents shaken by 4.1-magnitude earthquake - The Weather Network
A minor, 4.1-magnitude earthquake that occurred Sunday morning in Quebec was felt as far away as parts of southern Ontario
www.theweathernetwork.comHere’s the latest I can share based on recent coverage:
-
A 3.9 magnitude earthquake was reported in the Ottawa–Gatineau region, with shaking felt in parts of Ontario and Quebec, including near Petawawa, on April 14, 2026. No major damage was reported in initial accounts. [CBC Ottawa-Gatineau coverage, April 14, 2026][5]
-
Other sources noted that tremors in late 2024 and late 2025 affected Quebec and Ontario, with Petawawa and Ottawa-area residents among those who felt the events, though magnitudes varied in those reports. These provide broader context that the area experiences occasional noticeable earthquakes. [Yahoo Canada/Weather Network summaries, 2024-12-28 to 2024-12-29][2][3]
If you’d like, I can pull the most recent local updates from a few reputable outlets (CBC, CTV, Global News) and summarize any reported impacts or safety advisories. I can also check for updated Geological Survey notices for Petawawa in the past week.
