HBCC UFO Research Note: The message below is in regards to Keefer Lake, British Columbia sighting and footage taken of the object. CHBC television went out and interviewed the man. News clip below.
Hi Brian, Rob from Keefer Lake here again. I have not been on your site for well over a year so have been out of the “loop” so to speak. I notice that there has been some interest in our sighting here. I would like to correct a misconception that has popped up. That being the second sighting by the CHBC news crew.
During the interview an object appeared similar to my original sighting. This object though similar was not the same as the first. I also taped this sighting and examined it on my computer after the reporter had left and after I had contacted you. On examination the differences are obvious. The CHBC sighting that day was obviously an aircraft. What has not been seen by you or anyone else are the close up shots that I have extracted frame by frame of the first sighting.
I have shown these shots to anyone interested including my brother-in –law, who owns and operates an aircraft maintenance facility, and the overwhelming conclusions have been ones of “…what the hell is that?...”. If it is an aircraft, not one of these persons, including pilots and air traffic controllers have been able to identify what type of aircraft it could be.
What was not shown on the CHBC broadcast is:
1. The first objects upon close examination reveal anything but a known aircraft. The gap between the 2 pods is distinct and not wing shadow. Blue sky is visible between them. I have changed hues, background colours etc. and the results all show a space between these pods.
2. These pods have flat faces front and rear with no tail, wings rotor or any other configuration common to known aircraft.
3. There are distinctly globular black dots appearing and disappearing from front to back of these objects in a rhythmic pattern. On some frames it can be that these dots are cut in half as they pass from front to back through the gap. On some frames there is only one dot and on other frames there are as many as seven distinct dots.
4. There is an obvious corona surrounding the entire craft that is visible no matter how you adjust the controls.
5. These objects were too close to the ground for commercial aircraft, a fact that is obvious to anyone who has been to our camp.
I have been staying incognito on this subject for the last year but I can say that these are not the only sightings of strange craft in the sky and I am not the only one in this area who has seen UFO’s here previous or since.
I will send you a complete copy of the tape ( the original stays with me) if you are interested as my equipment to properly analyze this tape is insufficient. Sincerely.
Thank you to Bob for the update.

Markham, Ontario A Light Down The Valley (Ravine) Frightening Experience
Posted: January 23, 2008
HBCC UFO Research Note: I wanted to add a short note about this sighting as there were a number of reports that I have received from different folks over unusual sightings for the same date and around the same time in other areas in Ontario, main location for the UFO sightings was Scarborough, Ontario.
Date: August 4, 1977 Time: 11:45 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Markham, Ontario Canada. Number of witnesses: 5 Number of objects: 1 Shape of objects: White sphere.
Full Description of event/sighting: Brian, I was listening to the Rense show from last week and I realized that I had a sighting later the same night that Paul I believe his name was had the West Hill sighting. I lived in Markham due north of West Hill about 10 miles. I really did not see as much as I physically experienced. I and 4 friends were going home from the Roxy movie theatre after watching the 7:00 pm movie, and it had just become dark. I decided to cut through the ravine next to the main street Highway 48 going south toward Highway 7, also known as Wellington Street. As I was walking on the path I saw what looked like a motorcycle headlight except very bright down the ravine as I was making my way alone along the path. My friends were all walking the long way around as they were too freaked out to cut through the ravine at night. On the path there was a pair of posts, like the old cable guard rail posts from a highway guard rail with a chain across. I knew this was there and was very careful in the dark to find it and carefully step over.
About 10 feet past the chain is where I noticed the light down the valley (ravine). I remember looking at the light for about 2 seconds, and then I found myself on my face on the trail, as I got up there were leaves falling from the trees that I could make out in the darkness, I could just see them. The light was gone, I quickly made my way up to the highway and my friends were not there so I ran in the direction that they would have travelled and found them behind the beer store. They were a little shaken and when I finally got them to tell me what they had seen, they said a white meteor had come straight up the ravine just about tree top level. I asked them where it hit, they told me it didn't. It just kept going really fast.
I don't know if this in any way corroborates Paul's story but I never forgot Thursday the 4th August 1977.
Additional Information Below:
Cheers Brian, The answers to your questions are as follows.
Question 1:
You mentioned in your report that you saw the light in the ravine. Was the light actually in the ravine or sitting just above it ? I just wanted to be sure.
The light was diffuse it was not direct more of an indication through the trees. The light or whatever it was came over highway 7, now there is a stream in the bottom of the ravine which goes through a culvert under the highway. The reason that I mentioned this is because the elevation of the road was about 40 feet above the bottom of the ravine where the stream was.
I could make out the culvert and see light in it and through the trees the light was south and I would say was above the trees.
Question 2:
Also, roughly how far away were you from the light at it's closest point?
It went right over me, straight toward me and right over top too fast for me to look up before it was gone.
Question 3:
Was any type of sound detected?
No sound at all from the thing itself although I remember a whoosh and my first though was that it had been a helicopter but I thought instantly that there was no rotor or engine noise!
Question 4:
Or any lights on the object other than it being very bright?
I didn't see any although my friends just said that it just looked like a light ball and they heard a whoosh.
Question 5:
Something else I found of great interest, but not 100% sure as to what may or may not have happened. But you mentioned that you were looking at the light for approx: 2 seconds, and then I found yourself on your face on the trail. Now big question here, did you just trip, or fall down, and this is why you found yourself face down. Or did something else happened that may be related to the sighting event ?
I remember that I was careful that I did not trip over the chain across the trail (to stop cars coming in) as I knew it was there and was careful to locate it. I don't remember tripping and I do remember being really pissed off that I was face down and didn't know why. I went back the next day to see if there was anything on the trail that I could have tripped over.
Question 6:
I also was wondering if it was a windy night that day ? Reason why I ask is that you mentioned the leaves from the trees falling down around you. If you understand where I am going here, in other words I am wondering if there may have been interaction between you and the object.
No I remember that it was a warm night and that there was no wind to speak of not even a breeze it was a little eerie and maybe that's why my friends would not come for the short cut I think that they were a little freaked out. As far as interaction was concerned I am sure that it knocked me down but I don't remember anything else. The weird thing is that it must have displaced air because of the falling green leaves and the whoosh sound.
Regards.
Thank you to the witness for the very interesting report.

Kootneys In British Columbia Pulsing Colored Light
Posted: January 23, 2008
Date: February 20, 2007 Time: 10:30 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Kootney's Number of witnesses: 3 Number of objects: 1 Shape of objects: Looks like star that pulses coloured light.
Full Description of event/sighting: My children and I have been observing objects in the sky that looks like stars in the sky until closer observation when you see pulsing colored light. They can stay in the same place for hours, sometimes jumping left and right quickly. In Burnaby we observed them frequently. Sometimes they appear triangular when viewed through a telescope. When we just traveled to the Kootneys two days ago, we observed many of them in the sky along the highway to the Kootneys. It was as if they were traveling the highway out in front of us like a guide or something. Tonight, there has been one posted above the house we are staying in. I'm not sure what they are or what they are waiting for, but when we ran into the field back in Burnaby to get a video of them and we heard a melodic tone. It showed up on the video when we viewed it. You have to listen close but you can hear it. It was kind of like tone from the mother ship in the old movie " Close Encounters of a Third Kind"
Thank you to the witness for the report.

North West Of Toronto, Ontario Shiny Object Leaves Low Smoke Cloud (Photos)
Posted: January 23, 2008
Date: February 21, 2007 Time: Approx: 6:05 p.m.
Hi Brian, How are you? My son call me from his cell this evening at around 6:05 pm from his car, He and his girlfriend saw two very shiny objects in the sky and it appeared that all of a sudden all this dark smoke developed and they didn't see the objects again.They were just around the corner So they grabbed me and my camera, This is all I got.It's the dark smoke you see in the middle of the sky.
We then turned around to go home and as we started to drive a little further I saw something flying very fast leaving a dark trail behind it. I'm sending 2 more pictures of that But you can't see the object it appeared to be flying way to fast, although it did leave a trail. The direction was in the NW sky and I am NW of Toronto. Thanks Again, Your the Best!
Additional Information:
The dark smoke near the tree on the left and the trail is in the centre near the top of the tree's. Hope you can get something out of this. I'm just glad my son and his girlfriend saw it, because he's a real skeptic and maybe just a little afraid. Though I think after hearing what they had to say makes me think he's finally getting it. I almost felt like they didn't think that I believed them!
I thought I should tell you that (name removed) (Son's girlfriend) said, 'It looked like something was on fire in the sky and then the smoke developed.' Plus, the smoke was in the sky for at least 10 min. before I noticed the fast object in the other two photo's.
Thank you to the witnesses for the very interesting report and photos.

Cochrane, Alberta A Long Bright Shape Hanging In The Sky
Posted: January 23, 2008
Date: February 21, 2007 Time: 6:00 p.m.
Number of witnesses: 1 Number of objects: 1 Shape of objects: Rectangular.
Full Description of event/sighting: While driving west on Griffin Road in Cochrane I looked up at the clear blue sky and saw a long bright shape hanging in the sky. At first I thought it was a cloud reflecting the sun so I pulled over and watched it for a few minutes. It never moved and didn't dissipate like a small cloud would. I have no idea what it was and am curious if anyone else in the Calgary area saw this thing as well. Thanks.
Thank you to the witness for their report.

Whitby, Ontario Three Oval Shaped UFOs
Posted: January 23, 2008
Date: February 16, 2007 Time: 11:40 a.m.
Number of witnesses: 1 Number of objects: 3 Shape of objects: Oval
Full Description of event/sighting: I was on the phone when I looking up to the blue sky and I noticed three oval shaped UFOs traveling in formation heading west. Two of the UFOs split up and traveled south and the other one traveled west. Within five to seven seconds they disappeared. They were traveling faster than any jets I've seen at any show. They were approximately 5000 feet high, and approximately the size of a school bus. I paused for 5 to 7 seconds and apologized to my customer.
Thank you to the witness for the report.
