Circumstances surrounding cycling fatalities in Canada, 2006 to 2017.: CS82-625/2019001-9E-PDF
"While cycling, both as a means of transportation and a leisure activity, is a physical activity with recognized health benefits, injury events can occur. According to data from the Canadian Vital Statistics: Death Database (CVSD), between 2006 and 2017, 890 cyclists died in Canada, an average of 74 deaths per year. Over the same period, the age-standardized cycling death rate decreased from 2.5 in 2006 to 1.3 deaths per 1,000,000 population in 2017. Similarly, the crude rate of collisions involving a cyclist fell from 228 to 151 per 1,000,000 population between 2006 and 2017"--Page 3.
