Looks Like Canada 5: The Shag Harbour UFO Incident

On the evening of October 4th, 1967, many people witnessed an unidentified object crash into the water at Shag Harbour, Nova Scotia. This is one of the few cases where official government documents actually reported a possible UFO. Whether or not you believe in UFOs, this is a fascinating tale and piece of Canadian history.
