Canada had recently closed airspace over Lake Huron. That followed an earlier incident Sunday where the U.S. closed and then reopened airspace over Lake Michigan.
UPDATE: Canada says this was a joint NORAD operation.
“Defence Minister Anita Anand statement: ” Today, a high-altitude object was detected in U.S. airspace over Lake Huron. NORAD launched Canadian and U.S. aircraft to investigate and the object was taken down in U.S. airspace by U.S. aircraft.””
