For what its worth, my father, uncles, aunt, grandma&grandpa lived on cape breton island(nova scotia) during this time and they did infact see a craft
on a saturday morning while working on the docks. My father was a teenager at the time.
He tells me that himself, bosch and louie(uncles) were doing their dock chores at about 7am when they saw a large black oval(from how he describes it,
it sounds like the classical cigar shaped craft). He said the ocean was calm that morning and this craft was hovering over the water about a mile out.
My father described is as simply huge. At that time, in that place of the world, no such things(ideas) of this sort were ever concived so Im not sure
that they even knew what they were seeing. He also mentioned that everyone witness to it said it was hard to breath like a kid sitting on your
chest.
Alot of people were witness to this that morning, my father, uncles and bunch of other fellas working the docks. Aparently the dogs, there were always
dogs around, were going insane and the seaguls, which are always in numbers near fishing boats took off. He said they watched it for about 10 min.
before it rose vertically until it was no longer visible. On a possible related note, a freshwater lake about 10 miles inland had went down about 5'
over night and to this day remains a mystery to the towns people. The department of natural resources, forrestry and a few other provincial government
agencies were there in numbers for some time but could never figure out what had happened to all of that water.
Im always facinated by this account.
