An Air Canada Rouge Boeing 767-300, registration C-FMWP performing flight RV-1712 from Toronto,ON (Canada) to Punta Cana (Dominican Republic) with 280 passengers and 8 crew, was accelerating for takeoff from Toronto's runway 23 when the crew observed a bird, felt an impact and a yaw, however, engine parameters remained normal. The crew continued takeoff and levelled briefly off at 5000 feet to assess the situation, then decided to continue the flight as all indications were still normal. Enroute at FL330 about 260nm southsoutheast of Toronto the crew received indications of increasing vibrations of the left hand engine (PW4060) and decided to return to Toronto. The aircraft landed overweight but safely back on Toronto's runway 23 about 100 minutes after departure.

The Canadian TSB reported based on the damage observed during inspection maintenance decided to replace the left engine.

NAV Canada reported the remains of a bird of prey were found on runway 23 after RV-1712 reported a possible bird strike.
