摘要

Laser strikes pose escalating risks to aviation security and safety. Using 1,275 reports from Transport Canada’s Civil Aviation Daily Occurrence Reporting System (2022–2024), this study analyzes temporal, geographic, and operational patterns. Incidents are concentrated in Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia, and Alberta, occur predominantly at night, and peak during approach and landing. A Poisson regression reveals a significant upward trajectory of approximately 1.5% per month, alongside strong seasonal variation, with August–October highest. Findings indicate the persistence of laser misuse and emphasize the need for targeted enforcement, awareness campaigns, and continued monitoring in Canadian airspace.
