UFO science key to halting climate change: former Canadian defense minister
2007-03-01
It's so friggin obvious...
OTTAWA (AFP) - A former Canadian defense minister is demanding governments worldwide disclose and use secret alien technologies obtained in alleged UFO crashes to stem climate change, a local paper said Wednesday.
He's "demanding"? What is he, a friggin Muslim...
"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.
"Nurse, Paul's off his meds again!"
How do ya think Santa get's those reindeer to stay up in the air, Paul? You're in Canada, so why don't you call the North Pole and ask him?
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.
Maybe there's even plans for a hybrid Gulfstream IV, whiich would get the peasants off of rich people's asses. What a boon to humanity that would be!
"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.
Maybe. And maybe they have some anti-psychotic medications that might be of great interest to...someone like yourself?
Hellyer became defense minister in former prime minister Lester Pearson's cabinet in 1963, and oversaw the controversial integration and unification of Canada's army, air force and navy into the Canadian Forces. He shocked Canadians in September 2005 by announcing he once saw a UFO.
Well, at least they know what they're dealing with here then.

#13  "former Canadian defense minister"

As I said over at Tim Blair's, this would explain a lot.

#12  The source of ALL global warming is blatantly obvious to any reader of Rantburg. It's all the hot air spewed by politicians around the world. While Washington, DC, has its share, the majority of hot air is currently being produced in Europe, primarily Belgium, and in any nation with a majority population of muslims. The solution is equally obvious, but can never be implemented due to the source. We can end global warming overnight by killing all the politicians (and former politicians) and the "leaders" of "muslim" groups, tribes, and nations. Since this is the ultimate in anti-Politically Correct behavior, it can only be implemented as a "final solution" to an otherwise unsolvable non-problem.

#11  Inter-Departmental Memo

Subject: Wetwork

To: Halliburton MIB Division

Gentlemen,

It has come to my attention that th aforementioned Canadian is making waves and suggesting that secret technologies obtained from OTE (Other Than Earth) sources be revealed so as to stem global climate change.

This is definitely not in the best interests of our shareholders and OTE friends. Our interests clearly lie in a vested interest in keeping certain carbon-based fuel sources as the primary economic vehcile for the entire planet. Anyone who attempts to upset the apple cart of our carbon-based fuel economies or to reveal technologies that our OTE friends might have, inadvertently, provided during their many visits (and crash landings thereon) our friendly planet, represents a direct threat to our shareholder and OTE client financial assets.

Thus, I am directing an immediate wetwork operation against the named individual.

Thanks,
Frank G Harraway
Division Director, Halliburton OTE Visitor Coordinator, MIB Department

PS. Please insure that our OTE observation teams continue their clandestine efforts at creating accidents using high frequency sound, microwave, and radio frequency broadcasts in order that our Salvage Division is kept busy scavenging crash sites.

#9  one bloke said he saw one (please take with a pinch of salt, i did... it was on you tube) and that he was brought in by the government to work on it. Apparently it used as fuel element 115, which of there is only a few grams of in the world, so of what use this alien technology is with no fuel i don't know

#8  He would LIKE to see the alien tech? He was the former Defense Minister. Wouldn't the aliens "from out of space" have kept the Canadians in-the-loop? And wouldn't, by dint of his position, already seen it?
