Well, I'm located in Vancouver and have witnessed an UFO. As a preamble, I do not use drugs (legal or illegal) of any sort, and only socially drink on the very rare occasion. I am not, and never have been on any medication. I prefer to be lucid at all times if I can help it. And I am highly skeptical that we are being visited by extraterrestrials, and I consider most, if not all, UFO reports as highly suspect.
It was September 14, 2000 at about 10:50pm (Pacific Standard Time; PST). I (alone unfortunately) happened to be out on our apartment balcony (in the Vancouver West End - just to the immediate side of Vancouver downtown) admiring the clear starlit sky, when I viewed an unusual, dimly lit object in the southern sky about 45-60 degrees altitude (relative to my position). Initially it appeared stationary, and I assumed it was cosmic in origin. But quickly it became apparent that it was moving very slowly across the sky northward at an estimated altitude of about 10-20,000 feet. The object could be described as dullish amber-white in colour. Its shape was difficult to discern. Within 10-15 minutes, the object was stationary nearly directly overhead (of my viewing position). After another 5 minutes, the object veered to its right eastward. Then in an instant, it 'nosed' up at a steep angle (I'd guess > 75 degrees) and accelerated. I observed a dull reddish glow from the rear of the object as it quickly vanished within a few seconds. No audible sounds could be attributed to the object. Very strange.
