Universal Coordinated Time UTC – ZULU is a 24 hour clock. During an eruption, if the wind is from the east at 10,000 feet (outflow), the tephra will fall on Vancouver, Canada in about an hour. If the Kulshan Wind is from the west (inflow) the tephra will fall on Merritt, BC in about 40 minutes. There are extremes in preparedness, of course. As a basis of my work I use the 2015 Profile of Earthquake Risk in the District of North Vancouver by Earthquake Canada, wherein they state that there is 30% chance of a M7.3 in the middle of the Salish Sea, say between North Vancouver, Nanaimo and Victoria, in the next 50 years, that will bring down 839 buildings, just among the 80,000 residents in the District of North Vancouver.

Other Active Volcanoes in Canada; Hoodoo Mountain
https://youtu.be/Ip4c4qmv0wc [4:05 minutes]
Canada contains 21 active volcanoes. Of these, one of the most remote and scenic volcanoes is located just north of the Iskut River near the border of Alaska. This volcano last erupted in 7050 BC, and will certainly erupt again. The volcano I am referring to is called Hoodoo Mountain, which is an unusual type of volcano called a tuya. This video covers the recent eruptions from this volcano, explain how it formed, and states the general hazard which it poses in the future. This video was made by a geologist who is based in Arizona. Check out this blog for a scientist who spent an extended amount of time at this remote volcano! https://blogs.dickinson.edu/edwardsb/...

Is Mount Baker a hazard for Canada?
Although there are several potentially active volcanoes in southwest British Columbia, Mount Baker, 23 km south of the Canada – United States border in Washington state, is the closest volcano to the population centres of British Columbia’s Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island. On a clear day, the ice-covered peak of Mount Baker, 3286 m high, is prominent on the horizon of southwest British Columbia.
Mount Baker is a stratovolcano, constructed over many thousands of years from a mixture of lava and volcanic debris. Like other stratovolcanoes, it has the potential for both explosive and non-explosive eruptions. Mount Baker also has the potential for landslides, debris flows, and lahars (volcanic mudflows and debris flows) because it possesses steep terrain, fractures, and a groundwater system, and is built of rock weakened by hot water and steam.

The Active Volcanoes in Washington; Kulshan / Mount Baker
The USGS - United States Geological Survey rates Kulshan / Baker as a
Very High Risk Volcano Canada seems to believe there is no problem.

Did you know that the state of Washington has several "active" volcanoes? One of these volcanoes is Mount Baker. A future eruption could affect a number of towns, including Deming, Hamilton, and Nooksack. This video covers the recent eruptions from this volcano, and states the general hazard which it poses in the future. This video was made by a geologist who is based in Arizona.

Sherman Crater - Mt. Baker | Sound of the Day
https://youtu.be/gEZ1h1LrDfw [1:11 minutes]
Attached is a recording made in Sherman Crater, the active crater at Mount Baker. The audio was made by Michael Dyrland during a gas sampling trip by volunteers with Mount Baker Volcano Research Center [MBVRC]. You can hear the roar of the gas as it escapes from a few of the hundreds if not thousands of fumaroles [gas vents], and bubbling, boiling water from tiny hotsprings. After St. Helens, Sherman crater is the hottest place in the Cascade volcanoes; even in winter there is bare ground at 9500' due to the hot ground, Sulphur gases and water vapor. MBVRC is an all-volunteer nonprofit organization that raises funds in support of volcano research at Mount Baker and informs the public via presentations about Mount Baker eruption history and hazards. Links to video taken in the crater are posted on the MBVRC website: http://mbvrc.wordpress.com/baker-facts/
Every year MBVRC volunteers climb the glacier and enter the crater to collect gas samples on behalf of US Geological Survey's volcano monitoring efforts. - Dave Tucker Research Associate, Geology Department Filmed By: Michael Dyrland 2nd Camera: Charlie Martin
