FOR IMMEDIATE DISTRIBUTION

Parliamentary Question Seeks Answers on Canada's Response to Unidentified Aerial Phenomena

MP BRANDEN LESLIE

OTTAWA, ONTARIO — October 27, 2026 

A parliamentary question submitted on behalf of MP Branden Leslie is breaching decades of silence on UAP in the House of Commons. 

MP Leslie is seeking specific answers about the Government of Canada's response to recommendations made in the Chief Science Advisor's Sky Canada Project report on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP).

_______________________

As of this publication by ZNN, no other media outlet has covered this Order Paper question.

_______________________

The Question on the Order Paper Q-1526 asks the federal government to respond to the following matters:

•  Provide a recommendation-by-recommendation account of the actions taken to date, including whether each recommendation has been accepted, rejected, or remains undecided. 

• Where recommendations have been accepted, the government is also being asked to identify implementation timelines and the federal entities responsible for carrying them out.

The request goes even further asking:

•  Whether, during 2026, the Department of National Defence, Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada, 3 Canadian Space Division, 7 Wing (Space), Transport Canada, or the Privy Council Office received any briefings or reports concerning unidentified anomalous phenomena or related programs. 

• If so, the government is required to provide details of each instance, including the date.

[Ed. Note: Canadians for Disclosure is in possession of original Canadian government Joint Intelligence Committee, RCMP and Transport Canada documents and memos - not hinting at, not suggesting, but proving Canada has had a long history in the UAP/UFO matter dating back to 1952. These documents are available upon request.]

Accountability, transparency and public interest

Unidentified Aerial Phenomena are observations that have not been conclusively identified. While an unexplained observation is not evidence of extraterrestrial activity, the subject raises legitimate questions about:

• Aviation safety, 
• National security, 
• Scientific investigation, 
• Interdepartmental coordination, and public transparency.

DR. MONA NEMER

Dr. Mona Nemer - Chief Science Advisor to the Sky Canada Project examined how Canada collects, reports, and studies UAP observations. The implementation of its recommendations is therefore an important measure of whether the federal government is taking a coordinated and evidence-based approach to the subject.

The parliamentary question seeks to move the discussion beyond speculation by requesting specific information about government decisions, implementation plans, departmental responsibilities, and the flow of information within federal institutions.

Among the central issues are whether recommendations intended to improve Canada's approach have been acted upon, whether implementation is proceeding according to defined timelines, and whether the government has established clear accountability for the work.

What the government’s response could clarify

The response could help establish:

• Which recommendations have been implemented, accepted, rejected, or remain under consideration.
• What timelines and departmental responsibilities have been established for accepted recommendations.
• Which federal institutions received briefings or reports concerning UAP during 2026.
• Whether existing government processes provide a coordinated approach to reporting, investigating, and evaluating unexplained observations.

The answers may also help identify areas where further policy development, administrative coordination, or public reporting could be warranted.

A test of government accountability

At its core, the parliamentary question raises three fundamental issues: 

• When the federal government receives scientific advice on a matter involving public safety, national security, and scientific uncertainty, what action follows and how can Canadians assess the results?

• Why are Canadians unable to make any genuine assessment of the UAP question when little if any information is available to them from their government?

• How long has this been going on and why haven't  MPs asked these questions before? 

A substantive response would provide a clearer picture of the government's progress, the institutions responsible, and the extent to which recommendations have translated into concrete action. 

The government is required to respond to the order paper question within 45 days.

ADENDUM

UNASKED AND UNANSWERED QUESTIONS REMAIN

The Question of the Order Paper leaves unanswered questions about why Canadian defence department officials were directed by the director of the Pentagon's UFO research program to attend a briefing in May of 2023 on UAP as a member of the FIVE EYES (FVEY) Intelligence Alliance. Canada, along with New Zealand, the UK, the U.S.A., and Australia compose this alliance. The FIVE EYES briefing details “remain classified” as reported by the CBC on June 7, 2023.

MORE NEWS - COMING SOON

Canadians for Disclosure has sent letters to relevant Cabinet Ministers requesting clarification of their involvement in the UAP matter.

LOOKING BEYOND THE HEADLINES 

Wernher Von Braun weapons in space and the new 

UAP Narrative

Monday September 28, 2026

Do not automatically assume that the so-called “UAP disclosure announcements” coming out of the U.S. Pentagon are what they appear to be.

• Yes, witnesses may come forward.
• Yes, some may receive immunity or legal protection.
• Yes, data and information may be released.
• Government agencies may disclose previously classified material… of course

But the critical question is what happens next - and how the information is being framed and operationalized. 

These UAP disclosure efforts by the current U.S. administration exist within a much broader domestic political and international framework - one increasingly characterized by paranoia, retribution, and an insatiable appetite to search for new enemies; whether they be on the streets of America, those lurking along its borders, and even perceived enemies among its own allies.

That broader context matters.

It is precisely why these disclosure efforts should be watched very carefully rather than simply accepted at face value.

The question is not merely what is being disclosed.

It is how that information will be framed, what covert threats will be attached to it, and what actions will ultimately be justified in its name.

_________________________

 

The Department of "War" has announced a legal waiver establishing a protected mechanism for personnel to provide UAP-related national-defence information to the PURSUE initiative.

There is little doubt that announcement is real.
What remains unproven is what political or strategic purpose may ultimately be attached to the UAP data and information that may emerge.

_________________________

Dr. Carol Rosin’s 2001 Warning Echoes to this day

Dr. Carol Rosin was an Aerospace Executive at Fairchild Industries. She also served as the spokesperson for and confidant of NASA aerospace engineer Wernher von Braun. 

Rosin has repeatedly stated that Wernher von Braun warned her that governments could use successive perceived threats—including extraterrestrials—as justification for increasingly extensive military activity and the weaponization of space. 

This has now been authenticated by the recent announcement that the United States has confirmed the US military has deployed weapons in space. [CNN, NBC, BBC]

Should Von Braun's warning be considered a random or delusional deathbed confession by a high profile director of the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center and architect of the program that successfully placed American astronauts on the moon - or, should it be taken seriously as information Von Braun was privy to as a NASA insider turned whistleblower with his final breaths?

Rosin’s account of what von Braun told her, should be examined as such. 

Her argument was essentially that the public could be moved from one perceived enemy to another through fear:

_________________________

First the Russians, → Then terrorists → Then “Rogue” Nations → Then Asteroids → Now Extraterrestrials.

_________________________

According to Rosin, von Braun called the Extraterrestrial threat the “last card.” 

The New Narrative

Given that the Iran war is increasingly showing signs of becoming a costly, protracted conflict with no clear resolution - what happens if the smoke screen of the U.S. Pentagon's UAP disclosure tranches is gradually transformed from an investigation into unexplained phenomena into a narrative about a new existential enemy?

If that happens, watch the language.

Watch for the transition from “What are these objects?” to “How do we defend ourselves against them?”

Watch for calls for:

•  Extraordinary military authorities, 
• Expanded surveillance, 
• New weapons programs, 
• Increased defence spending, or 
• An expanding weaponization of space.

And watch the timing carefully—particularly as the United States approaches major elections.

ZNN is not claiming that such a scenario has been proven or that a specific future event is inevitable.

As a news network steeped in how 'UAP disclosure' has evolved, ZNN is however cautioning that people should pay attention, question the narrative, examine the evidence, and resist fear-based conclusions.

Do the research yourself.

Start with Carol Rosin’s 2001 account at the Washington DC National Press Club:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezRub6jIOrU

Then examine the current UAP disclosure mechanism directly through the Department of War’s own announcements.

https://www.war.gov/.../department-of-war-issues-legal.../ 

Don't just watch what is disclosed. Watch how the disclosure is interpreted - and what policies are proposed in response.

 

Watch for updates on this story.

Special Review of UAP Evidence, Testimony and Government Data

BREAKING INVESTIGATION: 

UAP INTELLIGENCE PIPELINE APPEARS TO BE ACCELERATING

September 16, 2026

Toronto [ZNN] An expanding trail of information from government sources, former intelligence personnel and sensitive radar-related data is raising new questions about what officials may know about unidentified anomalous phenomena — and how much of that information remains hidden from public scrutiny.

ZlandCommunications has learned from a highly-placed source that the rate, volume and specificity of UAP-related revelations are increasing dramatically.

The information reportedly points to a growing body of UAP-related material originating from Canadian government sources, former U.S. intelligence officials and space-based radar systems. Much of that information, the source emphasizes, remains restricted, classified or otherwise inaccessible to independent investigators and the general public.

That creates a significant evidentiary gap.

Researchers and scientists may be able to examine witness accounts and publicly released material, but without access to the underlying sensor data, radar records and intelligence assessments, independent verification of the most extraordinary claims remains extremely difficult.

Among those claims are reports that some UAP may display capabilities that appear inconsistent with currently understood human technology.

___________________________________________

ZlandCommunications has not independently established that these objects are extraterrestrial or that any particular incident represents technology beyond human capability. However, evidence from pilots and radar sensor data  appear to point in a non-human direction.

___________________________________________

In any case, the continued emergence of reports from multiple sources and geographic regions is raising questions that officials have yet to fully answer. And the geographic picture is becoming increasingly difficult to dismiss as isolated.

UAP reports are being documented not only around highly sensitive military installations in the United States and across North America, but also from Guam, the wider Pacific region, Europe and the Middle East. For investigators tracking government statements about the phenomenon, the significance may lie not in any single sighting, but in the pattern of occurrences.

The intelligence pipeline appears to be accelerating, prompting three emerging questions:

 

 

Is the public witnessing an increase in UAP activity — or an increase in the amount of information that governments can no longer keep contained? 

 

How much trust can be attributed to the continued mountain of releases into the public domain by the U.S. Pentagon without any clarification or analysis?

  

Is the extraordinary ambiguity surrounding UAP reports and their possible extraterrestrial origins an unintended consequence of national-security secrecy - or is ambiguity itself part of the strategy to create uncertainty and even fear among the general public?

Despite their urgency - few, if any government agencies or mainstream media appear willing to investigate these questions.

ZlandCommunications is continuing to investigate.

A Special ZNN Review 

For the benefit of the general public and journalists, and in response to what ZNN considers to be inadequate analysis of UAP data by government agencies and mainstream media outlets, ZNN has undertaken the task of conducting a thorough review of the available data and the broader issues surrounding UAP phenomena.

1. Overview

• A growing body of testimony, official statements, and investigative reporting suggests that the U.S. government—and potentially other governments - may possess technologies or materials of non-human or otherwise unexplained origin.
• These claims remain unverified publicly; however, their increasing frequency and the involvement of government officials, military personnel, and congressional representatives warrant continued examination.
• The ambiguity surrounding government agencies’ efforts to protect or release data concerning UAP incidents—including events over military bases, encounters with military aircraft or naval operations, and the storage of recovered materials - is pervasive and, at times, appears purposeful.
• The failure to release this information limits the ability of independent researchers, scientists, and the public to critically evaluate claims that some UAP may demonstrate capabilities beyond currently known human technology. 

___________________________________________

2. Alleged U.S. Government UAP Recovery and Analysis Programs

• There are claims that the U.S. government maintains an operational program dedicated to the recovery, examination, and analysis of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP).
• Whistleblower testimony presented to the U.S. Inspector General and to members of Congress has included allegations concerning the recovery and analysis of UAP and associated materials.
• Despite these allegations, U.S. government officials have continued to state publicly that there is insufficient evidence demonstrating the existence of non-human intelligence.

___________________________________________

3. Canadian Government and UAP-Related Claims

• Former Canadian Member of Parliament Larry Maguire wrote to former Minister of Defence Anita Anand requesting an investigation into reports that Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC) may possess materials allegedly recovered from UAP incidents.
• Mr. Maguire has also asserted that former Deputy Minister John Hannaford was briefed on reports concerning unidentified craft operating over Canadian nuclear energy installations. ZNN's investigation reveals that while Deputy Minister of Natural Resources, Mr. Hannaford failed to provide follow-up details for Larry Maguire reports concerning unidentified craft operating over Canadian nuclear energy installations.
• These allegations raise questions regarding whether Canadian government departments or agencies possess information or material relating to UAP that has not been made publicly available.
• Canadian Members of Parliament remain mute on the UAP issue. 

___________________________________________

4. Congressional and Parliamentary Engagement

• U.S. Representative Eric Burlison recently disclosed that he participated in an online briefing with two Canadian Members of Parliament concerning information related to his most recent UAP investigations.
• While ZlandCommunications has been in communication with Representative Burlison’s office, as well as having held multiple discussions with the offices of Manitoba MPs Grant Jackson and Branden Leslie, the UAP matter continues to attract unprecedented global attention. Despite this increasing scrutiny—including at the highest levels of government—there has yet to be any public acknowledgement of the matter from Canadian Members of Parliament.

___________________________________________

5. Satellite, Radar, and Sensor Data

• There are assertions that extensive satellite, radar, and other sensor data concerning UAP exists but has not been fully released to the public.
• Former U.S. Representative Mike Rogers, who served as Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, has publicly discussed the existence and significance of UAP-related sensor data.
• Additional reports indicate that data may exist concerning UAP operating beneath the ocean or emerging from the ocean; this relevant information has not been publicly released.
• Claims have also been made that advanced U.S. aerospace radar networks have detected UAP operating at or near space-based altitudes.
• Reportedly, some of this information falls outside the scope of the UAP data currently being publicly disclosed by the Pentagon.
• Such data is potentially significant because it may contain detailed analysis of UAP speed, acceleration, maneuverability, and other performance characteristics.
• The continued restriction or non-release of this information limits the ability of independent researchers, scientists, and the public to independently evaluate claims that some UAP demonstrate capabilities beyond currently known human technology.

___________________________________________

6. Military Base and Aviation Incidents

• In December 2023, reports emerged of repeated unauthorized UAP incursions over Langley Air Force Base lasting more than two weeks.
• The reported incidents were sufficiently significant that an entire squadron of F-22 fighter aircraft was reportedly relocated.
• Similar incidents were subsequently reported at Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana.
• Air Force officials reportedly acknowledged that they were unable to determine the origin of the objects involved.
• Such incidents raise questions concerning the ability of military surveillance and air-defence systems to identify, characterize, and respond to unidentified objects operating within or near sensitive military airspace.

___________________________________________

7. International and Maritime Incidents

• Reports of unexplained aerial phenomena continue to emerge from locations across North America, Guam, and the Pacific.
• Some reports involve UAP operating in proximity to naval vessels and other military assets.
• Additional reports have emerged from the Middle East and Europe, suggesting that the phenomenon is not necessarily confined to a single geographic region or military jurisdiction.
• The persistence of reports involving military installations, aircraft, naval vessels, and other sensitive infrastructure warrants systematic examination and comparison of available sensor and intelligence data.

___________________________________________

8. Continuing Lack of Explanation

• Following a classified Pentagon briefing, a senior U.S. Senator reportedly stated that the Pentagon remains unable to explain certain UAP phenomena.
• This is significant in the context of continuing reports involving military personnel, intelligence officials, congressional representatives, and other government sources.
• While the inability to identify an object does not, by itself, establish a non-human origin, persistent incidents involving multiple independent sensors and military platforms merit further investigation.

___________________________________________

9. Summative Assessment

• Considered individually, any one of these reports could potentially be dismissed, challenged, or explained through conventional means.
• Taken collectively, however, the volume, persistence, geographic distribution, and increasingly official nature of the reporting raise substantive questions that warrant serious and sustained attention.
• The central issue is not whether every UAP report represents technology of non-human origin. Rather, it is whether governments possess information, sensor data, recovered materials, or other evidence that could allow these claims to be independently evaluated.
• Greater transparency, subject to legitimate national-security considerations, would enable qualified scientists, researchers, legislators, and the public to assess the evidence on its merits.
• At minimum, the continued withholding of potentially relevant information makes it difficult to determine whether reported UAP represent conventional aircraft, foreign technologies, sensor phenomena, previously undisclosed human capabilities, or phenomena that cannot presently be explained by known technology.
