I have referenced the city's traffic safety report in this comment:

and this article:

http://raisethehammer.org/blog/2805/hami...

"Hamilton pedestrians are as much as 42 per cent more likely to be injured compared to the Ontario rate. The risk to cyclists can be as much as 81 per cent higher than the provincial average."

"There were an average of 269 pedestrian injuries and fatalities per year from 1991-2010 and an average of about 6 pedestrian fatalities per year."

and a summary data from the SPRC report is given here:

I don't have the data for 2013, but the trend has not dropped since the early 1990s.
