THANKS FOR THIS SWAMPY. I JUST WENT TO BC UFO SIGHTINGS 2017 AND WAS STARTLED TO SEE REPORTS FROM COURTENAY BC (WHERE I LIVE.)
Also a fair few in the Duncan,Cowichan area. All of them were lights in the sky that did not behave like airplanes, helicopters, etc. Of course nowadays we have the issue of drones flown by people enjoying a good hoax.
I am visiting a friend of mine on the old Cowichan Lake Road (Duncan) tomorrow. I have never seen anything (the guest room does not have an easy view of the sky). However it feels - well some of you know. It feels spooky. Sky spooky.

The number seemed steady but are now climbing in the late summer/fall months. Interesting in that Canada is usually socked in with clouds and rain by September. And then its cold at night in Oct. - March. Anyone seeing something either got a flash of it while outside for a smoke or probably while driving. The only place I feel "sky spooked" is in the Cowichan area--where my friend lives. I stay with her for a couple of days about 4 times a year and its always the same. Sleeping is more difficult than usual (I don't need to be in my own bed to sleep well). I met a man who was running a used bookstore there, Richard N. He wrote a book about crop circles and told me that he and his wife had seen one locally that never made the paper or news. Also he wrote a fiction book that had touches of otherness in it. I had an immediate affinity for him but after he sold his business I lost touch.
I know no one in my immediate area who was or think they are experienced. It's been so long (other than spookiness at my friend's house in Cowichan)that I don't think much about it anymore. Other fish to fry. Not that it wouldn't all come back if a new event happened to me. I don't lay down and look up at the sky much anymore. The annual Perseid meteor shower happened over the weekend but we were socked in with thick clouds. I do watch the sky when I'm driving at night but since my vision is not so good at night anymore (the glare of headlights)that is not often either. Still its good to come and check in here. "Stay calm and watch for the signs." (from Dead Dog Cafe, a CBC radio show that isn't on anymore - they'd end with that every week.)

Thanks swampy.
Here's one from Courtenay (where I live):
July 29th Courtenay, BC
"Hi. I was just outside with my husband. Stargazing. I saw what I thought at first was a satellite, moving from the west to east. Then I noticed directly behind it was another satellite following closely behind it?!! As soon as I noticed the second one, the first disappeared and re appeared further east across the sky moving irratically (side to side) Then the second appeared next to it and they stopped moving. Then they moved apart from each other,VERY quickly, and the one on the right disappeared, and the second one to appear was visible for a few seconds then disappeared. They were not very bright, quite dim. I hope this makes sense, quite the experience and I'm pretty rattled. Yet it's not the first time I have seen strange things in the sky here on the island! I'll share my second story while I'm at it. Last summer (approx august 2016)I was stargazing (yes we love the stars) and I saw something similar to tonight. I saw what I thought was a satellite, and it zoomed off into the sky very quickly and disappeared. Courtenay, BC Thank you for your time." BC UFO sightings page.
Apparently nothing since then. That anyone is talking about anyway.

59 is up quite a bit for Canada. Considering also that most winter skies are not clear (less chance of seeing Venus or the moon in one's rearview mirror.

Well, there were the lights above the Puntledge River (close to my house). I reported that here. Not close, no vibe but it didn't suddenly stop being visible. Red and blue. Could have been a drone flying along/above the river. Night? Why? So one more report from Courtenay in January. Paulette

www.ufostalker.com Includes canadian sightings. Also UFO BC Homepage is useful. They write back to the witnesses/reporters and rule out obvious things like reflections on the windshield (when taking pictures in car) and clarify direction the picture was taken and street addresses and such. I'm always surprised that there are such reports here in BC. I also like watching Indians and Aliens on the APTN channel. A lot of accounts from very rural and isolated areas.

I just looked up “tv show Indians and Aliens”. Says it’s a documentary from Quebec 2013-2014. Sounds interesting. 😊

Interesting to see that Canada's sightings are creeping up slightly and that more people see spheres than discs. Hmmm.

UFOs are getting harder to spot, research claimsBy Chris Ciaccia | Fox News June 6, 2018
Perhaps it should be close encounters of the blurred kind?
New research suggests that UFO sightings in the U.S., which tend to move in six- or seven-year fluctuating cycles, are in a permanent downtrend — and researchers are puzzled.
Cheryl Costa, recently named Researcher of the Year by the International UFO Congress, has found that yearly UFO sightings in the country are now 7,837 on average, a drop of "a whopping" 41 percent from the three-year peak average years.
Costa, who wrote up her findings in the Syracuse New Times, explained that during the cycles, UFO sightings rise to a peak, decline back toward the baseline, and then rise to initiate a new cycle.
Between 2012 and 2014, the U.S. had a peak average of 13,500 yearly UFO sightings, Costa wrote, citing data from NUFORC (National UFO Reporting Center) and MUFON (Mutual UFO Network).
However, in 2015, sightings fell 11 percent to 11,975 and 2016 saw an even more dramatic drop, falling 21 percent to 10,602.
Costa has not yet found a solid reason for the significant drop in sightings, but speculated that it had to do with broadband Internet access.
"We see relatively flat sighting report numbers from 2001 to 2006," Costa wrote. "This flatness is considered an artifact of reporting, as broadband Internet access was still growing in most areas. Access to broadband is a major driver in people having routine use of web reporting services such as NUFORC and MUFON."
Costa noted that New York state rose to the fourth-most likely place to see a UFO during 2016 and 2017, but dropped significantly from its peak average, at 325 sightings seen in 2017, down from an average of 577 seen between the period of 2012 and 2014.
She wrote that both the national and New York state charts show the classic rise-and-fall pattern from 2006 to 2010 and in 2011, the rise starts again.
The spike that was seen in 2012 could be attributed to the "Mayan calendar media ballyhoo," causing more people to look up, Costa said. With that into consideration, the classic UFO sighting cycle is seen "clearly" from 2011 and 2017.
