Former Canadian defense minister urges use of Alien technology

This past February a former Canadian defense minister demanded that governments worldwide disclose and use secret alien technologies that have been obtained in alleged UFO crashes. He was suggesting that these alleged technologies be used to stem climate change.

“I would like to see what alien technology there might be that could eliminate the burning of fossil fuels within a generation … that could be a way to save our planet,” Paul Hellyer, 83, told the Ottawa Citizen.

Alien spacecrafts would have traveled vast distances to reach Earth, and so must be equipped with advanced propulsion systems or used exceptional fuels, he told the newspaper.

Such alien technologies could offer humanity alternatives to fossil fuels, he said, pointing to the enigmatic 1947 incident in Roswell, New Mexico - which has become a shrine for UFO believers - as an example of alien contact.

“We need to persuade governments to come clean on what they know. Some of us suspect they know quite a lot, and it might be enough to save our planet if applied quickly enough,” he said.

Hellyer was a defense minister in former Canadian prime minster Lester B. Pearson’s cabinet in 1963. He oversaw the controversial integration and unification of Canada’s army, air force and navy into Canadian Forces. (that was back when we did have a decent amount of troupes and our equipment was new!)

In September of 2005 he shocked many Canadians when he announced that he’d once saw a UFO.

Am I embarrassed to admit that I’m Canadian? You bet I am!

Air force staff sergeant caught in the buff

It seems that Michelle Manhart, an Air Force staff Sergeant, is in a lot of trouble for being out of uniform. Why? Well she posed nude for a Playboy Magazine layout. Her photo spread is titled “Tough Love”.

The photographs show her completely out of uniform and carrying weapons while completely in the raw.

Officials at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio TX have issued a statement saying that Manhart is relieved of her duties while the military conducts and investigation. Officials add that posing in buff doesn’t “comply with the Air Force’s core values.”

Manhart doesn’t think she did anything wrong,and that she didn’t think it would be such a big deal. She’s married and the mother of two children.
