We observed significant inequities in transportation injury risk requiring hospitalization, with higher incidence rates among low-income and Indigenous populations for injuries involving motor vehicle occupants, pedestrians, and cyclists
Canadian Community Health Survey captures more bicycling/walking than the census. Across data sources, walking more common among women than men. Men had higher risk of a fatality than women for bicycling and walking. Both data sources have key limitations for measuring bicycling and walking. Implementing a national household travel survey should be a priority in Canada.
