Yes, every day. Most of them are pretty small; the average meteor that you see in the sky is the size of a grain of rice or smaller. Bigger one do land occasionally. But about 15000 years ago, there's evidence that a fairly large meteor, or comet, or asteroid, DID hit northern Canada, which may have caused the "Younger Dryas" mini-ice age. The extinction of the woolly mammoth appears to have happened at about the same time, and also the disappearance of the pre-Indian "Clovis people" who seem to have been the only humans on the North American continent at the time.
