Reading them together is the reason this site holds more than one register.

On certain buses, interference with the driveline U-joint when operating at extreme working angles (suspension in full bump or full rebound) can result in driveshaft separation from the axle yoke. If the driveshaft separates from the vehicle it could come in contact with other vehicles on or near the roadway, possibly resulting in vehicle damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will affect repairs.
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 2005089.

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 Ic: 15 in the register, and 404 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2005.
