Canadian Lawmaker Calls for Increased Transparency After Images Surface of UAP Shot Down Over Yukon Territory

New details have recently surfaced regarding an incident involving an unidentified object shot down over Canada’s Yukon territory in February 2023, including imagery obtained through a Canadian freedom of information act.

One of several shoot-downs that occurred in the days following an incident last year involving a Chinese spy balloon that traversed American airspace, Daniel Otis, a freelance investigative reporter writing for CTV News in Canada, revealed last month that he had successfully obtained images of the mysterious object obtained by pilots shortly before it was shot down. 

Following the widely-reported incident, Canadian Chief of the Defence Staff Gen. Wayne Eyre initially suggested the image should be released publicly, although the Canadian military did not officially approve such actions at that time. 

Despite pilot accounts that described the object as a metallic, cylindrical shape that appeared to possess a wire-tethered payload, secrecy on part of the Canadian government has only fueled public curiosity, giving rise to speculations about the object’s origin. 

Now, the release of the grainy, black and white image of the object adds a new layer of intrigue to the puzzling incident.
