Several blinking lights over Algonquin Park

We were camping in the southern end of Algonquin Park. Don't have exact time, but I'm guessing it was between 22:30 and 23:30. Resting on a point and watching stars, I initially saw what I thought was a sattelite cruising across the sky. But each time I looked up again, it was either returned to the initial position in the sky, moving in another direction, or gone completely.

On closer look, I noticed about three 'satellites' moving across the sky - all blinking in unison. After that, more became visible, some moving upwards in the sky, some moving left, etc.

Initially I thought my eyes were just playing tricks on me. It was late, and I'd had a few glasses of wine. When I finally said something to my buddy, he told me he saw it as well.

If anyone has any info please post. I've never seen a satellite move like this before.
