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

On certain motorcycles, the suspension arm may develop cracks from the combined effects of a press-fit bearing and exposure to corrosive agents (such as snow melting agents). Should these cracks become severe, the rear suspension could collapse, which could result in reduced vehicle control, and a crash causing injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace the suspension arm assembly with one that has redesigned pivot points with new hardware more resistant to corrosion.
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 2007298.

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 Yamaha: 146 in the register, and 420 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2007.
