Initial data
The author of the original material received a call from a taxi driver who was very excited about something he saw while picking up a ticket to Val-Therese on January 1, around midnight.
He described seeing five reddish-orange lights moving one after the other from the northwest to the southeast. He stopped, rolled down the window and realized that there was no sound. When asked if these objects could be Chinese lanterns, he said that what he saw (the lights) was the size of a car and was moving too slowly to be an airplane.
After he took his ticket, he said that they also saw one of the objects as it flew through the night sky.
Later, he called the airport and asked if there were helicopters with orange lights in the area at that time, and the person who answered the call said that there were no planes with yellow lights and that if helicopters were in the area, even on a cold night he would hear the sound of blades.
This taxi driver was so excited about what was happening that he did not waste time in vain, wanting to meet with me and discuss what he saw.
Original news
Date: January 1
Location: Val Therese, Ontario
I received a phone call from a cabbie who was all excited about something he had seen while picking up a fare in Val Therese on January 1, at around midnight or so.
He described seeing five reddish-orange lights moving from the N - N-W heading S - S-E, one after the other. He pulled over and stopped, lowered his window and realized there was no sound. When he was asked if these objects could have been Chinese lanterns, he said that what he saw (the lights) were about the size of a car and moving too slow to be an aircraft.
After he picked up his fare, he said that they too, had seen one of the objects as it flew by in the night sky.
He later called the airport and asked if there had been any helicopters with orange lights in the area at the time, and the person who answered the phone said that there is no aircraft with amber lights, and that if helicopters had been in the area, even during a frigid night, he would have heard the sound of the blades.
This cabbie was so excited about the whole thing that he didn't waste any time in wanting to meet with me and discuss what he had seen.
