People congregating in the park right across the street from me a couple minutes after the earthquake:

Felt it in Ohio.
Just barely felt it in Cleveland.
I felt my chair slightly moving at it's base. I'm in southern Ontario.
Felt it, from montreal

Exact same as this guy. I was in school, I thought someone was just shaking the table, I didn't know there was an earthquake till I read it on here.
Facepunch: Where you find out news that you should have experienced yourself.
Everyone at my workplace felt it except me. I was in the basement, you'd think it'd be easier to feel something like that, eh? Granted I'm a fair distance away. I was listening to the radio though, some women from London called in and she was like "I don't know who else to call about this, but did I just feel an Earthquake?" the radio host pretty much just told her "Yea, we've been hearing a lot about that for some time now, I didn't even know London could get Earthquakes."
So it was in Ottawa, felt in Toronto and London and I'm about an hour south of London just along the lake shore. If my co-workers felt it from that far away I think the instruments that recorded the quake are wrong. It must have been bigger than a 5.5.

I had no idea, never felt one before in my life
I watched all the water in my fish tank slop around, and my couch shook.
I never felt it, but then again I'm in Manitoba.
It came all the way down to Chicago. I felt it :).
Northern Alberta, I have lived here my entire life, never experienced an earthquake.
I was taking a nap at the time of the quake.
I was in downtown Montreal, and I felt the building I was in shake. At first I thought it was a truck outside .. >_>

Everyone makes fun of us Manitobans but when buildings start falling over on both coasts WHO WILL BE LAUGHING THEN HUH
I had to read the headline like five times before it made sense to me
I mean really? Central Canada?
All I know is I'm heading out to the lake in a few.
I'm pretty sure the quake stirred up a few fish in Lake St. Clair.
I'll report my findings later. Hope I catch some good eats. :)

Lots of people call Ontario "central Canada" even though it's actually offset to the east.
It is technically Eastern Canada cause we use EST.
I meant that that was one of the last places I'd expect an earthquake to occur.
Though funny enough, I hear Ontario called Eastern more often than Central

I refer to it as Central though, since Eastern implies that it's the farthest east, pretty much snubbing the Maritimes
I'm glad that I was in Brossard (witch is south from Montreal) but I felt a earth quake a little bit.
I was worried at first that I was having a seizure when my chair started shaking from this. Noting much, just a few vibrations that shook my desk and chair a little. Second ever quake I've experienced in Toronto in my lifetime, first one was when I was about 7.
[QUOTE=Dr. Freeman;22828286]Earthquakes are very common.[/QUOTE]
Not here they aren't. I've experienced one in my lifetime, back in the early '90s or late '80s, can't remember exactly.
While in class the desks rumbled a bit.

I felt that in Ottawa, damn, we got evac'd and everything
My house shook slightly yesterday, but it does that sometimes, so I doubt it was the quake.
