Canadian DM: LCDs, Microchips Come from Aliens
The Canadian defense minister fires back at Stephen Hawking.
Former Canadian defense minister Paul Hellyer fired back at Stephen Hawking's recent comment about contacting aliens. In a manner fit for an episode of The X-Files or V, Hellyer basically said that it was too late, that aliens have been visiting earth for decades. In fact, aliens brought humans technology used today such as LCDs and microchips.
"The reality is that they (aliens) have been visiting earth for decades and probably millennia and have contributed considerably to our knowledge," he told the Canadian press. "Microchips, for example, fiber-optics, they are just two of the many things that allegedly--and probably for real--came from crashed vehicles." Note the key word allegedly.
As we reported last week, Hawking said that an alien visitation would be similar to Columbus discovering America--they would come to conquer. Intentional contact with aliens would only invite disaster, as the visitors would consume and deplete the earth's resources. "If they (aliens) wanted to use our solar system, for some super project, our complaints would be like an ant colony protesting the laying of a parking lot," Hawking said last week.
But apparently that's not the case according to Hellyer who is now infuriated with Hawking "for spreading misinformation about threats from aliens." Based on his belief, alien craft leftovers have seemingly triggered the IT and microchip revolution of today. What he didn't explain was why mankind can't even get back to the moon if we're confiscating alien technology.
"[Hawking] is indulging in some pretty scary talk there that I would have hoped would not come from someone with such an established stature," Hellyer told Silicon India. "I think it is really sad that a scientist of his repute would contribute to what I would consider more misinformation about a vast and very important subject.''

Another reason to make fun of Canadians? I think YES.
Great, their defense minister is either a crazy conspiracy theorist or just let some state secrets slip. Either way I don't think he will be staying as defense minister for too long.

"Former Canadian defense minister Paul Hellyer"
People just don't read articles, they seem to skim these days, and then choose to make a comment to make themselves look dumb.
lolwut? how is this guy in-charge of defense? someone send bush up there, they need help. (yes, THAT bush)
O_O what else can one say about this
I think being defense minister left him a little too paranoid...
Quick... get me Scully and Mulder.
O_O what else can one say about this
one could say he's nuckin' futs.
Ur dumb, and gay.
Awesome, so i guess everything we base our lives on, such as automation and control is all based from reverse engineering alien technology?
At least we know their weakness.. EMP.

Yes we can

Are you sure this wasn't someone from China talking about Americans?
Ok, I'm from Canada and this is just strange. He was born close to near where I lived. He is a aeronautical engineering and was a politiction. Look at this, he said this: "The United States military are preparing weapons which could be used against the aliens, and they could get us into an intergalactic war without us ever having any warning...The Bush Administration has finally agreed to let the military build a forward base on the moon, which will put them in a better position to keep track of the goings and comings of the visitors from space, and to shoot at them, if they so decide."
*Face palm*. Ahh....Just go back to making Maple Syrup.
actually I heard some time ago about this guy admitting the same thing AND that they tracked one that went underwater for about a week or so and travelled underwater to the gulf of maine where the us military sent diver down to investigate. when it then elevated out of the water and then disappeared faster than any man made craft. ( if i find the link, i will post it) also i heard recently that some other countries have come out about aliens visiting as well. is it so hard to believe really? my opinion is we would have to be quite ignorant to think we are the only intelligent ( debatable) beings in the universe. It didn't take long once we started on our way to develop intelligence. what? 200k years? that's nothing compared to the age of the solar system. let alone the universe. well, that's my 2 cents. lol
so the canadians dug up the crashed UFO that was buried under the ice in the frozen tundra.after a bunch of scientists got killed and some were thinking the aliens looked like folks they knew !!!
even dogs from the sleigh team.
the canadian military "cleaned" the site up and then removed the tech.
secretly (when they needed cash) they "opened" the secret archives up and would release new discovered tech.
see i knew it was them canadians all the time.
That is because there is no reason to go back to the moon. We already did it for the novelty and bragging rights, why waste the money? There's nothing there but space dust. Send a man to mars before you send another to the moon.
We CAN go back to the moon at any time. Is just extremely expensive to do it without an outstanding important reason.
I'm Canadian, and I'm not supposed to say anything, but yes it's true, we have alien technology. That's why our cellular networks and internet infrastructure is vastly superior to that of the US.
To much Alien crap going around these days first Stephen Hawking now this guy If this technology exists like flying saucers...etc then look no further then our own Governments.
William Cooper was right.
Hey, if George W Bush could run around professing to believe in some all powerful supreme bieng called God, who wanted him to start Armaggedon...then surely we can forgive this Canadian guy his belief in alien technology. I mean, ask me which one of the two sounds kookier, and I'll point to Bush, cause that's some pretty funky and scary crap that guy believed.
this guy is pretty much on target. we have received much of our technology from superior beings (aliens) and we have shared our knowledge with them in return. we want their ability to time travel while they want our ability to live 70+ years. since they wont share everything at once, we must go into space (NASA) and experiment on our own. and since we will not share everthing with them, they abduct people to study and experiment on animals.
OK, I admit it... it'a all true, in fact I'm an alien myself. But it's not longevity we're after, it's your women!
In the news: Aliens are suing Intel, Microsoft, Apple for using their patents. Especially Apple for stealing the iphone technology :-)
Patents registered on the Planet Omicron Persei 8, 10 million years ago...
Aliens are real. There's no way in hell humans are the intelligent beings in the vast universe. Just look at the Na'vi!!! And yes I'm being sarcastic- to a degree. But yes, aliens are real no doubt about it.
Ok I am pro aliens visiting our planet, not that I have seeing any unfortunately, and I follow some series on tv, I don't like V, but then when some Canadian minister says we may have actual political troubles with aliens because, sorry lol, lol... oh my, and the god thing in between from some readers, oh my we are the human race of planet Simpson. We know very little after all.
It is funny when you hear someone making news this way. Man, I have never seeing any UFO, but there are so manny pictures and historic coincidences, and mythical encounters on ancient cultures and so manny recent reports all over the US and the world...
You know what, this man is so brave and he has cojones. Either he knows to much or hi is Leonardo DiCaprio in Shutter Island.
Oh my God, on the left we have Stephen Hawking saying nonsense as a recognized scientist and talking like a science fiction novelist. On the right we have an infuriated Canadian Minister of Defense and in the middle we have our mentors the aliens. In front we have us and we can't believe what we are witnessing. This Canadian Minister need to show us some hard evidence.

This Canadian Minister and SH too need to show us some hard evidence because is their duty to represent at least a credible image. If the aliens are real o not is another story they are authorities, or they where.
Well, on this topic, if the Ex-Defense Minister will take some time to ponder then he must realize that all the fingers of hand are not the same. If a Race of Aliens advanced than Humans catches human signals and comes to know that there is a planet in their reach which is able to sustain life, do you think that either anyone of us will be ready to share our world with anyone with already over 6000 million+ population, whom the governments are unable to feed ? Will they share the resources with them and will the Aliens like to live like slaves ?
No, there will be "Survival of strongest and fittest" applicable in this condition. All Aliens will never be the same as Ex-Defense Minister claims that some of them have helped in advancing technology, I would like to know that if that is so, then why is this fact not published anywhere else with Evidences to support his illogical theories ? Did he meet them personally ?
I am sure, he didn't, so instead of accusing a world renowned Scientist of misinforming, he should think again. Instead he is carrying out the misinformation over the subject. Think over the possibilities again, make a committee for that, that's what the governments do. But if Aliens got chance, they won't wait for the Committee's results, they will come and plunder us.
I would like my questions to be asked in support of Stephan Hawking to the Ex-Minister.
Retards, he was the defense minister in 1963. Way to completely fuck up an article.
Worse than Wired for torquing headlines.
Fortunately we know that their mothership runs Windows without the latest hotfix.
one could say he's nuckin' futs.
Big LOL, and I hope you are happy, I am more than likely going to be calling everyone around me "nuckin' futs" all day tomorrow.
