Canada UFO Sightings and Experience Reports

At first, some witnesses suspected that they were watching a tragic airplane crash, and quickly reported it as such to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, which was located at Barrington Passage. Ironically, RCMP Constable Ron Pound had already witnessed the strange lights himself as he drove down Highway 3 while on his way to Shag Harbor. Pound felt that he was seeing four lights, all attached to one flying craft. He estimated the craft to be approximately sixty feet long. Constable Pound made his way to the shore to get a closer look at the phenomenal sight. He was accompanied by Police Corporal Victor Werbieki, Contable Ron O'Brien, and other local residents. Pound clearly saw a yellow light slowly moving on the water, leaving a yellowish foam in it's wake. All eyes were glued on the light, as it slowly either moved out further and became too distant to be seen, or dipped into the icy waters below.

Coast Guard Cutter 101 and other local boats rushed to the spot of the sighting, but by the time they arrived, the light itself was gone. However, the crewmen could still see the yellow foam, indicating that something had possibly submerged. Nothing else could be found that night, and the search was called off at 3 AM. The RCMP ran a check with the Rescue Coordination Centre in Halifax, and NORAD radar at Baccaro. They were told that there were no missing civilian, or military aircraft reported that evening.

The following day, the Rescue Coordination Center filed a report to Canadian Forces Headquarters in Ottawa. The official report stated that something had hit the water in Shag Harbor, but the object was of "unknown origin." The HMCS Granby was ordered to Shag Harbor, where divers searched the bottom of the ocean for several days, but without results and many thought the Shag Habor incident was over.

New evidence has uncovered that the search and recovery operations continued beyond that night for at least a week beyond the initial sightings. Apparently, the object that dove into the waters of the harbor had soon left the Shag area, traveling underwater for about twenty-five miles to a place called Government Point, near a submarine detection base.

It was there that the object was spotted on sonar and Naval vessels were positioned over it. After a couple of days, the military had a salvage operation planned when a second UFO joined the first. Common belief at the time was that the second craft had arrived to render aid to the first.

The Navy paused their salvage operation to wait and watch to see what would happen and after about a week of monitoring the two UFOs, some of the vessels were called to investigate a Russian submarine which had entered Canadian waters. It was at this point that the two USOs, or unidentified submersible objects, made their move. Making their way to the Gulf of Maine, effectively putting distance between themselves and the Navy ships, they broke the surface and shot off into the skies!

We had just got to shore and exited the boat when we looked back and noticed that the object was now back in the same place where we had intially spotted it. After a few minutes we decided to try going further down the lake to our neighbor's house. Shortly after launching into the water, the object again plunges towards us. Again, outracing the craft back to the shore, we ditched the boat and ran to another house.

When they came to door, we excitedly pointed out the reason for our disturbing their night of rest and now there were several more witnesses to this unusual, brilliant object. It again was seen to hover above the trees that surrounded the lake. We observed it for another ten to fifteen minutes until it raced off into the night toward the west-northwest.

We made a full report of the incident to Canada's National Defense team who investigated it, thoroughly. In speaking with other witnesses in the area, they discovered that the object caused the trees to move below it, as it hovered. The craft and the moon could be seen simultaneously. And, the object was a traditional oval shape with a dome on top, estimated to be twenty-five to thirty feet across, and ten to fifteen feet in height. No ever heard any sound from the craft and one witness said his radio suddenly went dead when the object appeared, but worked fine after its departure from the area.

The investigative team discovered a number of broken, wilted limbs directly below where the object had hovered. An analysis was made in Winnipeg, and the results of that examination was that no reasonable explanation could be offered for the damage to the tree limbs. The report also stated that the limbs showed signs of heat, and the samples contained no diseases or insect infestation. Anonymous
