Cigar over Ginew (Canada), MB · Canada
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Traveling down a country road at night, when we saw an reddish-orange light in the north east direction, hovering above the tree-line of a distant farm property, roughly 2 kilometres from our vehicle, or our vantage point. I first thought the object was a helicopter, but realized it appeared suddenly then disappeared suddenly as it moved to travel south west. It moved slowly and as it moved towards traffic it disappeared. The object probably only moved a few feet before disappearing.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #139479). Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
Canadian military and radar records answer to the Access to Information Act; historic UFO files are held by Library and Archives Canada. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.
