DISCLAIMER: The number of yearly fatalities on Canada’s roads and highways fluctuates from year to year and the 3,000 figure is only an approximation, used for the purpose of clarity and to simplify the message of the volume of casualties. It is based on approximately 2,800 recorded deaths in 2007 and an estimated 2,400 in 2008, and this number may change as Transport Canada receives updated statistics for 2008-2009.
