The Alberta UFO Wave of 1967 S01E08

In 1967 Canada was having a wave of UFO sightings including famous incidents at Falcon Lake, Manitoba which we covered in a previous podcast and Shag Harbour, in Nova Scotia.

Alberta, a western Canadian province was having a large number of UFO sightings coupled together with photograph and witness testimony with cases being investigated not only by local authorities, but by the RCMP, The Royal Canadian Air Force and also by the United States Military.

1967 started as an exceptional year as one of the worst storms ever pounded Alberta. Blizzards buried southern Alberta in over 6 ft of snow. Roughly 30,000 head of cattle starved to death in their pastures. The army was called in to help with snow and animal clearing. An airlift began to help stranded families delivering food, water and fuel. The year started off unusual and continued to get even stranger with almost weekly reports of unidentified flying objects reported in the skies above Alberta.

Both of Alberta's major city centres of Edmonton and Calgary saw a tremendous amount of activity, some of which was witnessed for up to four hours by multiple witnesses and also tracked by both civilian and airport radar devices.

In addition, remote locations from the bald prairies to the tall mountain ranges were also reporting UFO activity. In 1967 Albertans were looking up to the sky and reporting countless objects that they could not explain.
