How many people jump in the TTC subway tracks each year?

Question

How many people jump in the TTC subway tracks each year? Like into the path of an oncoming train. Like to kill themselves, intentionally of course...

Watch this, it scared me: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NvI78o4GwWg

The aftermath of a TTC subway suicide. Some guy said it happens about 200 times per year. Is that true?

Thanks.

I spent 10 years working for Toronto EMS , and I can tell you that the annual number is about 50 or one a week.
