"For decades, the Canadian government was investigating UFO sightings.
Matthew Hayes has spent the last year going through more than 15000 government documents on UFO sightings in Canada, using the Library and Archives Canada, which is available to the public. “It was pretty time intensive,” Hayes said.
“I was fascinated by the fact Canada had this investigation at all,” Hayes said. “For 45 years and in various capacities.”
Hayes is a Canadian Studies PhD student at Trent University in his fifth year. He has been featured on CBC Radio’s Ideas, Arthur Hour on Trent Radio, Qnet News, and the Peterborough Examiner because of his UFO research.
“I’m not really interested in explaining what UFOs are and how they work,” he said. “I come at this from a couple of different angles. History of science is one of them.”
