"As a Canadian company, we are proud to continue to build on our long-standing partnership with NRCan, from refreshing the Canadian National Seismograph Network to now participating in the design and deployment of Canada's Earthquake Early Warning System." Bruce Townsend, General Manager Seismology and Executive Vice President, Nanometrics.
According to NRCan, there are over 4000 earthquakes in Canada each year. Of these 4000, only about 50 are generally felt.
