THE DEPARTMENT OF FISHERIES AND OCEANS SAYS SMALL TSUNAMI WAVES HAVE MADE THEIR WAY FROM SOUTH ASIA TO THE B-C COAST.
SCIENTIST ALEXANDER RABINOVITCH SAYS THE WAVES WERE ABOUT SIX OR SEVEN CENTIMETRES IN HEIGHT-- AND NOTES THEY TRAVELLED ABOUT 35-THOUSAND KILOMETRES TO GET HERE, WHICH IS EXTREMELY UNUSUAL.
THE B.C. GOVERNMENT IS MAKING A CONTRIBUTION TO THE AID EFFORT IN SOUTH ASIA, FOLLOWING THE DEVASTATING EARTHQUAKE AND TSUNAMI WAVES THAT KILLED THOUSANDS.
PREMIER GORDON CAMPBELL CALLS IT A TRAGEDY SO PROFOUND, IT TOUCHES ALL OF US-- ESPECIALLY THOSE BRITISH COLUMBIANS WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS IN THE AFFECTED
COUNTRIES.
THAT'S WHY THE PROVINCE IS LENDING AID TO THE VICTIMS ABROAD.
