A Jazz de Havilland Dash 8-400, registration C-GJZN performing flight QK-8357 from Toronto,ON to Windsor,ON (Canada) with 50 passengers and 4 crew, was enroute at 12,000 feet when the aircraft encountered severe turbulence dislodging both pilots from their seats and accelerating a cart towards a flight attendant. The aircraft continued to destination for a landing without further incident.
The Canadian TSB reported the first officer hit his head, the flight attendant was hit on her leg by the cart, resulting in two minor injuries. Following landing in Windsor the crew performed the return flight, then first officer and the injured flight attendant ended their work days early due to their minor injuries. A severe/extreme turbulence inspection of the aircraft did not reveal any damage/faults.
