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

On certain buses, the power cables running to the power distribution unit stud & the driver's control module stud may have been installed with the eyelet lug flat side up. Vibration may wear the insulation permitting direct contact between the bare lug power distribution unit & driver's control module, which could lead to a direct short in the electrical system. This could result in a vehicle fire causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, correct the orientation of the power cable lug.
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 2010128.

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 notice names one vehicle among several registers that have written about it. Every notice this site holds for the Blue Bird Vision Transit Bus, in all seven, is kept on that vehicle's own page, with the newest in each.
This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Canadian recalls on a Blue Bird: 242 in the register, and 468 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2010.
