No idea...

Anyways, the incident has posted on Transport Canada's CADORS database: http://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/saf-sec-sur/2/cadors-screaq/q.aspx?lang=eng

Enter 2014O2544 in the CADORS Number field.

Small plane crash in Ottawa

...the pilot missed houses and play structures and both he and the passenger walked away with no injuries.

Pilots refer to this as a "landing."   :-)

More exactly, an "off-airport landing".  The Transport Canada report says "No emergency locator transmitter (ELT) reported", which would indicate a low impact touchdown.  The photo published in both press accounts does not show any significant damage
