From ‘Eh’ to E.T.: These are the best places in Canada to spot a UFO

There are billions of planets out there so it’s pretty hard to believe that we’re all alone – but would any of our galactic neighbours actually try to visit us? For many Canadians, the answer is “yes,” however, some are more likely to see a flying saucer than others! A new study, done by entertainment site, Ontario Casinos, has revealed the best locations, months, and times of day to spot a UFO across Canada – but did your city make the cut?

By analyzing dozens of public sighting reports between 2021 and 2022, Ontario Casinos determined that those who live in Calgary are most likely to see visitors, having amassed 47 sightings in just 2 years.

“Members of the public reported seeing things like glowing objects, long lines of white lights, and pulsating orbs in the sky,” they write.

Surprisingly, Alberta did not snag first place when they looked at provinces as a whole.

With 29% of all sightings, Ontario is a certified hotspot for unidentified flying objects.

As for when you’re most likely going to see activity? According to their study, In August around 10 pm is when you should be looking up and out for anything unusual – especially if you’re in Calgary, Ontario or any of the following places:
