Gigantic Earthquake due to strike Pacific Northwest

Well maybe not THAT soon. Not sure if this has been covered yet. According to this aritcle, there is a fault that runs from off the coast of Northorn California, to BC. It is my understanding that a fault actually runs underneath Vancouver BC (please correct me if I am wrong), and that it is has been extremely quiet for a little too long. Vancouver (downtown at least) was built straight up. I can only imagine the devastation that a quake of that magnitude would bring upon them.

Geologists have discovered evidence of a massively powerful earthquake zone beneath the Pacific Northwest just offshore from the Seattle area.

They made the discovery by piecing together ancient accounts of a giant Japanese tsunami and a computer simulation of a huge trembler in the 17th century.
