The stick shaker activated early because the anti ice was turned on and the captain induced the pusher by heaving back on the stick. Pure piloting muppetry.

The Dash 8 300 also has a pusher but the smaller 200 and 100 don’t.
Immediately after that accident I quoted the Coogan website which referenced the welcome of Dash 8 to their fleet. I commented on the likelihood of pilot knowledge/training being the cause on here and got slated for doing so.......

We can't change the past, but we can just keep learning.
