Management of public reporting of unidentified aerial phenomena in Canada : report of the Sky Canada Project.: Iu37-59/2025E-PDF

"In early 2023, the Office of the Chief Science Advisor (OCSA) announced the creation of the Sky Canada Project. At the outset, its main objectives were: to review current unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) reporting methods in Canada and propose improvements as needed; to enable Canada's federal government to optimize the collection and analysis of UAP observations in a transparent manner; to provide insight for better tools to combat misinformation and disinformation; to encourage participatory science and public understanding of aerial phenomena; to support monitoring of Canada's airspace. … This report presents the Sky Canada Project's findings, including: the challenges associated with collecting and analyzing reliable data on UAP sightings; a review of Canada's historical federal government practices for UAP reporting; a description of how Canadian government departments and agencies currently receive and manage UAP-related information from their partners and the public, as well as a brief overview of non-government groups that also receive UAP sighting reports from the public; a summary of the approaches taken by a few other countries. The report offers fourteen recommendations for improving reporting and data collection on UAP sightings in Canada"--Objectives, page 13.
