Canadians and Europeans also normally send aid following natural disasters; however, these contributions are rarely reported by the mainstream media in third countries. Consequently most Americans would be unaware that other countries help out too, unless they read non-American news reports.
I hope and expect that we north of the 49th will send help. We felt the quake here in YVR.
