The Summer of UFOs: Canada’s 1975 Wave (with Chris Rutkowski)

In the summer of 1975, Canada experienced one of its most intense and widespread waves of UFO activity. From glowing orbs lighting up the skies over Manitoba to structured craft witnessed by RCMP officers in Saskatchewan, hundreds of reports flooded in from across the country. Some sightings even left behind scorched earth and damaged vegetation—tangible traces of something unexplained. In this episode, we’re joined by Canadian UFO researcher Chris Rutkowski, who has spent decades cataloging and analyzing reports like these. Together, we explore the most notable cases from that summer, dig into the official government documentation, and ask the big question: what was really happening in Canada’s skies during Canada’s summer of UFOs?
