A Cargojet Airways Boeing 767-300, registration C-FCAE performing flight W8-302 from Vancouver,BC to Hamilton,ON (Canada), was on an ILS approach to runway 12 when the crew needed to take evasive action to the right due to an unknown VFR glider directly in front of them. Passing the glider the crew could clearly see the pilot of the glider, the crew subsequently returned their aircraft onto the approach profile and continued for a safe landing.

The Canadian TSB reported the glider was not transponder equipped and thus was not detected by radar and/or TCAS and made a turn towards the northwest.
