DISCLOSURE CANADA – March 1, 2015 Letter to the Hon. Jason Kenney Minister of National Defence Dear Minister It has come to our attention that there exists a multitude of instances and occurrences associated with the presence of aerial craft commonly referred to by NORAD and the Canadian Air Force as ‘non-correlated targets’, ‘unknowns’, or ‘Unknown Tracks’. (1) The general public and news media often refer to these craft as ‘unidentified flying objects’, UFOs or ‘craft of unknown origin’. (2) Upon exploring this information, it has become apparent that there exists indisputable de-classified documentation originating from within the Canadian and US government archives on this subject matter. (3) This documentation proves beyond any doubt, that this phenomenon has been discussed, analyzed, assessed and sequestered at the highest levels of governance and military authority in both Canada and the United States of America, (4) as well as a host of other international governments including the Vatican. (5) Since this de-classified documentation originates from within our own government’s archives, the question as to whether or not these ‘craft of unknown origin’ are ‘real’ is now immaterial. What has become of material relevance is; Canadian and United States authorities have engaged in discussions about the existence of these unidentified craft, their origins and the national security implications of recurrent and well-documented unauthorized incursions into Canadian airspace. (6) Documents exist that also describe government measures to keep this information hidden from the public. (7) RCMP and military officers, pilots (8), police officers and citizens have also made reports of these incursions. Further inquiry indicates the NORAD Commander has stated that each year for the last 5 years NORAD reports an average of 1800 Tracks of Interest (TOIs) and 75 intercepts of these craft. (9) Despite this overwhelming number of official incursion reports, no public inquiry or public statements by the Department of National Defence has ever been made to address this matter. Instead, government secrecy prevails. As concerned Canadians, with all of the rights pursuant to our citizenship, answers to the questions raised by these documents and testimony on this most unusual and serious matter are urgently required. To address these matters, Disclosure Canada is conducting a series of nationwide events to explain to Canadians the national security issues related to the classified and declassified documentation concerning ‘craft of unknown origin’. Speakers involved in this series are expert international researchers and authors, professionally versed in these matters lead by one of your predecessors The Hon. Paul T. Hellyer. All referenced documentation below unmistakably demonstrates that departments under your jurisdiction; NORAD, the Department of National Defense and the Canadian Armed Forces are well aware of multiple unauthorized incursions within Canadian airspace of craft of unknown origin. Therefore, we feel, it is incumbent upon you as the Minister of Defence to take this opportunity to attend one or more of these events, or to send a representative of the Defence Department to authenticate and be accountable for what these agencies have publicly acknowledged. If you, as sitting Minister of Defence, have not been briefed on this critical national security information, you should be, as this matter clearly falls within the fiduciary mandate of your portfolio; thus, released declassified documentation can be publicly addressed by you. Disclosure Canada is disseminating this letter to media outlets across Canada and the United States, along with making this letter available to the general public in the hope you will become part of this dialogue. If you or one of your representatives attend, you are more than welcome to ask questions, debate the information presented, and even present your knowledge and expertise on this important matter. Please confirm your actions and intentions with us as soon as possible.
