Here in Canada, however, there is still no sign of membership statistics from the Anglican Church of Canada for any year since 2001.

If there’s a plan to release more recent statistics in the near future, I haven’t heard about it, and nothing is posted at the church’s website.  I hope the ACC isn’t awaiting the release of religious affiliation data collected in the national census of May 2006.

The most recent membership figure is 641,845 persons on the parish rolls in 2001.  Even though that figure comes from Archdeacon Jim Boyles, a presumably reliable source, the “about” page at the Anglican Church of Canada’s website claims “more than 800,000 Anglicans”.  Hmmmm.

By the by, click here for those Episcopal Church 2006 statistics.  Kendall Harmon says, “Good to see this, finally”.  Canadian Anglicans are jealous.
