Document Reveals First Known Canadian UFO Study in Nearly 30 Years Now Underway
CTVNEWS | March 1, 2023 | Daniel Otis

Known as the “Sky Canada Project,” the study, being conducted by the Office of the Chief Science Advisor of Canada, is the first known official Canadian UFO research effort in nearly 30 years.

Would it be cynical to wonder if this is really the first Canadian UFO research effort in nearly 30 years?

According to a February 2023 PowerPoint presentation obtained by CTVNews.ca, the study seeks to understand how UAP reports are handled in Canada, and to offer recommendations for improvements if needed.

The project plans to collect information this winter and spring before preparing an internal draft report in the fall, and a final public report in the winter or spring of 2024.

To be presented in St. Kitts.

The nine-page presentation

Nine!? This post approaches that!!

is currently circulating within federal organizations that have been approached for input, including Transport Canada, the Canadian Space Agency, and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.

“Any emerging technology or unexplained phenomenon that is reported in the media is of interest to our office.”

Page 4 of the presentation outlines motivations behind the Sky Canada Project, which include supporting science to “document rare natural phenomena, “encouraging transparency and information access to “prevent conspiracy theories,” and aiding national security to “prevent undetected intrusions.”

Canadians needed to create a written plan to come up with those goals?

It also lists preparing for collaboration with U.S. officials, where both the Pentagon and NASA are studying UAP, as well as responding to “an official request” to “undertake a comprehensive study on UAPs in Canada.”

Again…

The presentation makes it clear that Sky Canada does not intend to transform the Office of the Chief Science Advisor into “the main point of contact for Canadians wanting to report observations.”

“(Sky Canada) is not meant to access and collect first-hand data,” the slides explain.

More Funding!!! Less troublesome data! Don’t bother us!

And in case you’re wondering, while shoveling money towards us:

“It is not meant to prove or deny the existence of extraterrestrial life or extraterrestrial visitors.”
