On certain vehicles, the clamp retaining the air box to the throttle body on the MAG (Magneto) side may eventually interfere with the throttle body lever mechanism if the clamp is not tightened. In that particular situation, the clamp may turn around the air box admission boot and, if throttle is sufficiently open, the clamp screws could potentially interfere with the throttle lever and, in some cases, prevent the throttle lever from returning freely to idle position. If this occurs, it could lead to loss of speed control and possible collision with bystanders, a fixed object or another vehicles and potentially cause serious injuries or even death. Correction: Dealers will install two darts or one stopper (depending on the model) on the air box to prevent the clamp from turning in case one omits to tighten the clamp when the vehicle is serviced.
The wording above is the department's own, as it stood in the monthly file this site last read. Vehicle counts are the sum of the counts published for each make and model the recall covers. To act on a recall, use the official notice: Transport Canada recall 2004238.

Reading this against the source
This page is what Transport Canada published in the Vehicle Recalls Database, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /canada, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.
What the words on this notice mean — the system it is filed under, and what the filing type says about who found the fault.
This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on a Ski-Doo: 80 in the register, and 449 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2004.
