The row of lights
At least 31 people across four separate areas of the Yukon reported a row of lights in the sky, several describing it as spacecraft-like, with others seeing it later from different places.
The record
The distinguishing feature is dispersion: four separate groups, different locations, and later observations from further away - the kind of geometry that lets researchers reconstruct a track rather than a single anecdote.
The Sky Canada Project report cites this case among Canada's notable historical encounters, which makes it part of the federal record's own history section.
Contemporary reporting is thin, and no original file has been read. The count of 31 comes from the Canadian Press retrospective, which is press rather than archive.
Mainstream reporting, named sources
This case rests on named mainstream reporting. The underlying files exist but have not been read directly here.
