How many people in Canada die from Plane Crashes each year?

I know flying is a lot safer than driving, but I still get worried when i'm up in the air. I haven't been on a plane in about 5 years, I would like to know the average number of deaths each year in Canada by Air flights. Thanks.How many people in Canada die from Plane Crashes each year?Between 1998 and 2007 there have been 322 fatal aircraft accidents reported by the Transportation Safety Board of Canada. Of those, 161 (50%) were private aircraft; 66 (20%) were helicopters, 50 (15%) were air taxis. Only 2 of those 322 were airliners. So, with tens of thousands of airliners in the air at any given moment over North America in the 9 years between 1988 and 2007 there were a grand total of 2 fatal accidents. You'll be fine.How many people in Canada die from Plane Crashes each year?Which 2 fatal airline crashes? I can't recall.
