-->The Pacific Coast city of Victoria, British Columbia is on the move, literally. The Canadian city of about 75-thousand people has moved 3 millimetres to the west in the past two days because of a seismic event that occurs in the region about every 14 months. The Geological Survey of Canada recorded the shift while studying the"tremor and slip event" -- a movement of the Earth's crust that could provide clues to when the next big earthquake will hit the region. The seismic event that starts in the U.S. Olympic Peninsula and moves into Canada usually lasts between six and 15 days but cannot be felt on the surface.
