The 2000 Kipawa earthquake (or 2000 Kipawa "Millennium" earthquake [1]) struck Quebec and Ontario, Canada with a moment magnitude of 5.2 at 6:22 a.m. on January 1.[2] It occurred in the Western Quebec Seismic Zone. The main shock epicenter was located in Lake Kipawa about {{convert|10|km|mi|0|abbr=on}} north of Témiscaming in southwestern Quebec and {{convert|70|km|mi|0|abbr=on}} northeast of North Bay, Ontario.[2][3] The shaking was strongest within {{convert|50|km|mi|0|abbr=on}} of the epicenter.[2] It was felt in Témiscaming, North Bay and as far away as Toronto, making it one of the most significant earthquakes in Canada in 2000.[3][4] The earthquake was triggered by major thrust faults associated with the Ottawa-Bonnechere Graben.[3]

Minor damage was reported during this earthquake, including fallen light objects, a damaged ventilation pipe and fractures in plaster. Its epicenter was very close to that of the 1935 Timiskaming earthquake and lies in a group of 76 located earthquakes since 1935. Seventeen aftershocks were recorded.[2]
