Carfax doesn't do a whole lot for Canadian car history. US vehicle records are much better kept. I have a whole printout on my Eclipse showing it's mileage recorded at year for emissions.
Carfax can't tell you if a car was ever in an accident, but it will tell you anytime it was involved in police reports. People don't always call the police when they crash their own car.

I don't know, but I JUST carfaxed my VIN on my 98 pickup, and got 7 "records".. I have been the only owner and I have had one accident that may or may not have ever been reported as such. That may be one of the reports, I can't imagine what the other 6 might be... maybe recalls or something? Kind of odd..
