  1. George Bush airbrushed them out of the picture (or pixelated them or whatever you artists do these days πŸ™‚

  2. Shouldn’t be any harder to hide than it is for the thousands of satellites in the picture. Judging by the amount of sightings per year, they’re not all staying unnoticed.

  3. C’mon andycanucklehead, that would only account for the Klingons and Romulans! Yeesh! πŸ˜‰

  4. The other possibility was that the picture was taken before human flight which raises an even more important question: Who took the picture?

  5. As Carl Sagan asked wrt alien abductions — shouldn’t the neighbours have noticed?

  6. Jeez people, this is so obviously a prank. Everyone knows there are no such things as UFO’s.
    What they are seeing are actually methane fireballs from global warming.
    I mean really, do I hafta ‘splain this stuff again?

  7. …that explains it!
    Camel farts!
    All those years of people smoking Camel (dung) cigarettes is coming back to haunt us!

  8. UFO sightings are simply another fiction. Some people just like fiction (Potter). They want too believe the unbelievable. Excitment.
    As Patrick Moore says; The best Hoaxes are the ones that are hard to prove a hoax —- at least initially.
    UFOs
    Y2K
    Lost City of Atlantis
    Man Made Global Warming
    Baldness Snake Oil
    Martians
    Alien Crop Circles
    Roswell NM Spaceship
    ……. there will be more “successful” hoaxes because fiction is popular —- just visit a book store. True stories are just too boring, I guess. And besides, nobody likes “stories” better than the media —- they will gladly perpetuate them as long as it sells dead trees πŸ™‚

  9. Do you people really believe we can not become invisible when required. The harassment that the CBC alone would give us is enough to slow down our takeover before you all become dhimmis! Look over your shoulder quickly and you may get a fleeting glance of us on a clear day.

  10. I understand from the Tinfoil Hat Society that there is intelligent life out there, and they were thinking of contacting us. But then they started seeing CBC shows and decided we were too dumb to bother with.

  11. There is just something so obviously wrong with this digital image. Toronto is obscured by clouds! Don’t these people know that Toronto is visible at all times from all points in the Galaxy? Sheesh!
    PS. I live in Toronto but my mind is free. πŸ™‚

  12. OK, so I’m gonna be the goat here. The term UFO
    means that there is an observed object that appears to be flying, that cannot be identified. Simple as that. UFO’s are spotted on an ongoing basis daily, throughout the world.
    You Troglodytes should keep an open mind to this phenomena. Camel farts, indeed!

  13. “How do all those UFO’s get in and out without being noticed”
    1)Black Activist Dudley Laws trunk.
    2)Welded into the sea-chest of Has-Been Primeminister Big Paulie’s ships, right beside the peruvian marching powder his company smuggles into Canada.
    3)Zipped up snugly in Alphonse Gagliano’s diplomatic pouch with all our stolen money, that’s how.

  15. Ha, ha, ha! richfisher, that is really funny. Needless to say, you have a point.
    rattfuc, I’m going to agree with you. Our high frontier instrumentation does in fact spot fastwalkers of unknown origin coming in to Earth’s atmosphere. Some of these may be experimental craft from other governments, secret projects by corporations, and even the experiments by extremely wealthy individuals. (I know of at least one billionaire in Nevada working along these lines.)
    However, despite all of this I do not favor the extraterrestial hypothesis. Of course, experts on non-lethal weaponry, like Col. John B. Alexander and others, have suggested that some phenomena are experimental systems. For example, if a sentry was ordered to shoot down any enemy craft flying over certain areas, he might not do so if what he saw was the Blessed Virgin floating in the sky.
    This may be responsible for phenomena like the Phoenix lights seen by literally millions, including at least one retired general flying his private plane back to Prescott when he viewed them.
    Nonetheless some of the phenomena remain inexplicable, and I lean toward the Fortean hypothesis — a view named whimsically after the writer Charles Fort. Some studies have suggested that during a period when a population center is experiencing a “flap” there will also be a rise in the sightings of Big Foot, the Loch Ness monster, and other phenomena.
    Serious researchers now have to travel to Third World countries for investigations as it becomes more and more impossible to scrutinize this in a country that has a large intelligence budget.
    Governments put out disinformation on this phenomena and use it to distract from projects they are working on. After all, if you see something weird and people float the idea it was a UFO, now you have been discredited and whatever the experiment really was never gets recognized.
    If anyone would enjoy taking a look at the phenomena from the intelligent, non-lunatic-fringe end, I would recommend books by Jacques Vallee.

    Greg, we’re only interested in the unintelligent, lunatic-fringe POV; but thanks for asking.

  17. Pierre Trudeau said in his autobiography that he was from the Andromeda galaxy. You can look it up.

  18. Mystery Meat, that’s a safe challenge to make because you know none of us would ever look at Trudeau’s autobiography.

  19. THE UNIVERSE SONG, from Monty Python’s THE MEANING OF LIFE
    Whenever life gets you down, Mrs. Brown, and things seem hard or tough.
    and people are stupid, obnoxious or daft,
    and you feel that you’ve had quite enouuuuuuuuugh…
    Just remember that your standing on a planet that’s evolving,
    and revolving at nine hundred miles an hour…
    That’s orbiting at ninety miles a second, so it’s reckoned,
    the sun that is the source of all our power.
    The sun and you and me, and all the stars that we can see,
    are moving at a million miles a day.
    in an outer spiral-arm at forty thousand miles an hour
    of the galaxy we call the Milky Way.
    Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars,
    it’s a hundred thousand lightyears side to side.
    It bulges in the middle, sixteen thousand lightyears thick,
    but out by us it’s just three thousand lightyears wide.
    We’re thirty thousand lightyears from galactic central point,
    we go ’round every two hundred million years.
    And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions,
    in this amazing and expanding universe.
    The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding,
    in all of the directions it can whiz.
    As fast as it can go, that’s the speed of light you know;
    twelve million miles a minute, that’s the fastest speed there is.
    So remember when your feeling very small and insecure,
    how amazingly unlikely is your birth,
    and pray that there’s intelligent life somewhere up in space,
    ’cause there’s bugger-all down here on earth!

  20. Thanks Greg In Dallas
    This may be old.

    Investigators flummoxed!

  21. Another question might be …
    How did our governments take away so many of our freedoms and raise our taxes to about 50% on average.
    WITHOUT ANYONE NOTICING!
    Meanwhile: It may someday be explained the advanced beings with very high technology have been visiting here for centuries from other planets.
    Explain the origin of god?
    Can’t do it can you.
    No one even has a picture to scrutinize.
    The invisible and the non-existent have a lot in common.
    The visibility of UFO’s means they may indeed exist. Many credible people have seen them. No one has reported seeing a god.
    I will put my money on the UFO’s over that other great mystery … the almighty deity.
    No one is flogging anything when they claim UFO sightings. The same cannot be said for things like the climate change scam, the scam that will get you to heaven for 10% of your income and an hour on Sunday. In it’s extreme the 72 virgin scam for blowing up by far wins the prize.

  23. First I don’t believe in UFO’s (need to see with own eye’s) but alternative claims to explain the apparent phenomena is that UFO / USO are natural to the earth (Unknown physics). Others claim they exist/ hide in the oceans and have been here for billions of years. Similarly some individual’s claim that they exist in our inner universe; β€œpopping” in and out of our own dimension or physical reality. Again who knows, I only mention it because these claims have more validity to me than far away aliens with what we know of our universe and the known physics to travel it. Anyway other explanations to the articles question about β€œgetting in and out without being noticed”.

  24. maple stump -thats chinese tunnelers your dogs growlin at . google chinese tunnels if you think ufo people are a bit crazed

  25. John:
    What if the UFO’s are God? If aliens had visited the primitive people back in bible times they certainly would have considered them gods.

  26. maybe those aleins have their own cloaking devices and their using WORM HOLES and SPACE GHOST used INVISO POWER

  27. Aha! The world DOES revolve around North America!
    Or
    Duuuuude, I’m like sooooo high.

  28. Or…..Their future advanced humans returning in time machines. Historical vacations…..
