Certain snowmobiles do not comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 1201 – Snowmobiles. Specifically, the passenger handgrip fasteners failed to meet the requirements of the certification program. If the fasteners were to fail, the passenger handgrips may loosen at one end and influence a rider’s ability to support oneself. If this were to occur while the snowmobile was in motion, there may be an increased risk of injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the passenger handgrip fasteners.
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 2018326.

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 Arctic Cat: 69 in the register, and 704 Canadian vehicle recalls filed in 2018.
