This Internet Archive item compiles 1965 to 1968 records from National Research Council of Canada files (RG 77, Vol. 306) on non-meteoritic sightings. It contains fireball and UFO telex reports from RCAF stations, RCC Vancouver and the RCMP, covering lights seen over Sydney, Vancouver, Cochrane, Toronto, Whitehorse and Shediac. It also includes an RCMP investigation of a 12 July 1968 impact at Tobin Road, Sydney Mines, Nova Scotia, which concluded the object was probably a meteorite, not a UFO.

I had asked on our first talk to draw me a diagram of what he had seen. This was on the 5th of Oct. On the 8th as I was sorting out this material I realized that it would be better to have three original diagrams, as a copy of this report was to go to three different places. I did not have the first diagram with me when I asked him to draw the others. Only after looking at all three did I realize it would be better if I sent a photostat of all three. You will notice that on the second and third diagram the position of the two fire balls, as called them, is reversed. This might have a definite meaning to a trained Investigator.

is unaware of this fact: I have known for 14 years and he is not the type to go around making up stories. He also requested that I do not get him involved in any correspondence or telephone calls. If further information was required, it would have to come from me. I assured him that his request would be requested.
