VANCOUVER—A series of earthquakes off British Columbia’s coast on Friday may be linked to a stronger quake in the same area earlier in the week, experts say.

Alison Bird, a seismologist with the Pacific Geoscience Centre near Victoria, said they are working to determine if the latest tremors are aftershocks from Wednesday’s 6.2 magnitude quake in the same region.
