  1. 01PDFTransport Canada / NAV CANADAp.1

    A decade of CIRVIS operational shift logs (2010-2019). Pilot, ATC, and civilian UAP sightings routed through NAV CANADA, CADS, and CANR to Transport Canada and one civilian researcher (Chris Rutowski) by fax.

    CIRVIS (Communication Instructions for Reporting Vital Intelligence Sightings) is the standardised routing for pilot and ATC UAP reports in Canada. The shift logs document the relay chain: NAV CANADA shift supervisors route reports to CADS (Canadian Air Defence Sector), then to CANR (Canadian NORAD Region), then to Transport Canada by fax. A representative entry: 'JZA 731 reported seeing approximately 40 lights in the sky at 48:37:48N, 068:37:39W, over the St. Lawrence River.' Civilian researcher Chris Rutowski sits on the CC list across the decade.

  2. 02PDFDepartment of National Defence / RCMP / National Research Councilp.1

    Part 15 (pages 4201-4500), the final stretch of the LAC FOIA release. The institutional record's tail, the years when Canadian departments were still receiving reports they routed through the same multi-agency relay.

    Part 15 is the final 300 pages of the LAC FOIA release. The institutional record's tail end, where the same multi-agency relay chain that opens at page 1 is still routing reports through the same fax queue. The release closes without an institutional position statement; the last pages are operational paperwork.

  3. 03PDFDepartment of National Defence / RCMP / National Research Councilp.1

    Canada UFO FOIA Release, Part 01 (pages 1-300). The opening tranche of a 4,500-page Library and Archives Canada release: incident reports, departmental correspondence, the institutional skeleton.

    Part 01 is the opening 300 pages of Library and Archives Canada's FOIA release of historical UFO files. The opening section sets the institutional context: incident report formats, departmental routing conventions, the kinds of correspondence the relevant agencies were processing. The release as a whole runs to roughly 4,500 pages, split into fifteen parts that follow this one.

  4. 04PDFDepartment of National Defence / RCMP / National Research Councilp.1

    Part 05 (pages 1201-1500) of the LAC FOIA release. The middle of the institutional record, where the running correspondence builds into a multi-decade ledger of how Canada's departments handled UAP.

    Part 05 sits in the middle of the LAC FOIA release. The institutional ledger by this point is dense with running correspondence, incident report forms, and inter-agency referrals. The middle parts show how Canadian departments handled UAP as a steady-state administrative workflow rather than a single moment of public attention.

  5. 05PDFDepartment of National Defence / RCMP / National Research Councilp.12

    Part 10 (pages 2701-3000). The mid-late stretch of the FOIA release, where the departmental ledger continues across years of incident reports the agencies never closed.

    Part 10 sits in the late-middle of the FOIA release. The record at this stretch is the kind of institutional paperwork that accumulates when departments are processing UAP reports across decades without an off-ramp: report forms filed, correspondence answered, files routed.

  6. 06PDFDepartment of National Defence / RCMP / National Research Councilp.1

    Final installment (pages 8401-8759) of Library and Archives Canada's 29-part consolidated UFO FOIA release, compiling RCMP detachment reports, National Research Council Meteor Centre telexes, and witness statements from a 1972 wave of Canadian UAP sightings.

    On 30 June 1965 a La Ronge Aviation commercial pilot flying a Cessna 180 at 4,500 feet observed a circular or oblong silver/white object that paced his aircraft for close to 100 miles between Deception Lake and Simon Lake, Saskatchewan.

    Pages 7201–7500 of Library and Archives Canada's consolidated UFO FOIA release, covering RCMP detachment reports, DND correspondence, and NRC meteorite-committee referrals from 1964–65 sightings across Saskatchewan, Yukon, and Prince Edward Island.

  8. 08PDFTransport Canada / Department of Transportp.1

    Project Magnet was authorized in December 1950 by Commander C.P. Edwards, then Deputy Minister of Transport for Air Services, and assigned to the Broadcast and Measurements Section of the Telecommunications Division with informal help from the Defence Research Board and National Research Council.

    Wilbert B. Smith's June 1952 interim report on Project Magnet, a Department of Transport study of flying-disc sightings, concluding the data point toward a substantial probability of extra-terrestrial vehicles.
