When he first picked himself up off the ground after falling from a ladder on a job site six years ago, Mark Foster thought at worst he might be a bit sore for a few days. Though he'd smacked his head after tumbling from a height of four metres, the then 44-year-old from Ingersoll, Ont., initially saw no reason to believe he'd suffered an injury that would soon have life-changing consequences.
For the second year, the number of people killed on the roads remains below 3,200. These results are to the credit of all road users who respect the rules and all professionals committed to ensuring their safety.
