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

On certain vehicles, the software of the ABS control unit (ECU) is incomplete. The software required to initiate the illumination of the red "BRAKE" warning lamp during the check of lamp function, when the ignition switch is turned to the "ON" position, when the engine is not running, is not included. This could result in the driver not being aware that the lamp is inoperative, and the light not illuminating to notify the driver when the brake fluid pressure or fluid level is too low, which could increase the risk of a crash. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the ABS control unit.
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 2014494.

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 Hino: 47 in the register, and 591 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2014.
