Not to sure I would put much stock into what this seemingly represents. Paul Hellyer for the most part was small potatoes in and on the Canadian political scene. He was an independent and back bencher for years. He held minor positions in the government, and was eventually appointed the position of Minister of Defense for 1963-1968 under then Prime Minister Lester Pearson. Pork barreling and hand outs at best. When Pearson was defeated in a reelection, Hellyer was gone as well. The hand out job ceased when his buddy got booted.
The title is misleading at best, he doesn't speak for Canada, nor for the Dept. of Defense. Credibility is being based on a position held 44 years ago......which carries really no credibilty at all when you look into it.
If the UFO crowd wants to impress, they need better spokes people than this, just another old fart that muddies the water.
