We've been hearing owl calls in the night for some weeks now, I think I've identified the species. It's the boreal owl, usually found in northern Ontario but recently driven south by the weather and changes in the rodent populations of the north.

Here's a sample of the sound. (Excuse the microphone handling noises and chatter.)
