Canada’s Transportation Safety Board reported that preliminary figures show the number of aviation accidents increased last year compared to 2020. The agency said in part this was due to a gradual resumption of commercial air transportation activity and a higher-than-average amount of activity in other segments, such as aerial firefighting. Nevertheless, the overall number of accidents and incidents in 2021 was lower than the previous five-year average.

The number of aviation accidents (190) reported to the TSB in 2021 was 12 percent more than in 2020 (170), but about 11 percent lower than the five-year average of 214. There were 22 fatal accidents and 31 fatalities in 2021, compared with 12 fatal accidents and 16 fatalities in 2020.
