“A small earthquake off Vancouver Island on Wednesday, October 11th is a good reminder of the upcoming Great British Columbia ShakeOut, said a government seismologist. Alison Bird, earthquake seismologist with Natural Resources Canada, said the 4.5-magnitude quake occurred at 2:26 a.m. and was centred about 200 kilometres west by southwest of Tofino.”  Times Colonist, Thursday, October 12, 2017

The mini-quake is also a good reminder to the gluten free to consider whether there will be food options for yourself and/or the gluten-free person in your life?  Take a moment to consider protecting your family / friends by assuring their health in a time of need. TOTAL PREPARE‘s Legacy Premium Meals are Certified Gluten-Free, absolutely safe for celiacs, the gluten-sensitive and the wheat-allergic. (See documentation below.)

  • A Word of Wisdom from Reva: “We were evacuated during the Fort McMurray wildfire. Due to road closures we were forced to head north to “nothingness” While the oildsand site was amazing and fed everyone steak dinner from their cafeteria, they had nothing gf except juice boxes. My then 3 year old only had juice for 24 hours until we lucked out and made it south through a 15 minuted window where the fire stopped crossing the road and it was opened. The evacuation centres were fantastic with providing gf food once they knew it was needed, but that only helped when we could reach them. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE learn from my mistake and have ready to eat gf food handy to grab at a moments notice. We now have a stash of energy bars, sesame snaps, etc that are high energy, but light and easy to transport. Don’t assume you will have access to electricity for preparing things. I will forever have mom guilt for putting my little one in such a precarious situation.”

Additional Considerations:

• It is wise for everyone to prepare a grab-and-go bag that will last for 72 hours.
• In earthquake zones, plan to be self-sufficient for 7 days.
• Water purification kits and tablets.
• Heat and shelter: foil sleeping bags and stoves in a can.
• Light and communication: crank flashlights and radios.
• First aid and sanitation: including pails with toilet seats.
• Store your supplies in your car, office, camper, outside in a shed, or at the front of your garage. NOT in the basement, which you may not have access to.
• Don’t forget food and supplies for your pets.
