One of the most famous UFO sightings in Canada was the Falcon Lake Incident on May 20, 1967. After a morning of working in the bush, and a light lunch, Stephan Michalak returned to chipping away at a quartz vein he had found. The cackling of some geese nearby, obviously frightened by something, startled him. He looked up, and saw’s two glowing objects descending towards him. This incident put his family life into upheaval and remains one of the world's best-known UFO encounters.
Stefan Michalak was treated at a hospital for burns to his chest and stomach that later turned into raised sores on a grid-like pattern. Photo courtesy the CBC.
