The former Canadian minister of defence received a briefing on UFOs last year from his department ahead of the release of a U.S. intelligence community report on the topic, according to newly obtained documents.

The PowerPoint presentation titled “Unidentifed Aerial Phenomena (UAP): Brief to MND” says there are “Approximately 1,000 UFO sightings reported in Canada each year.”
