I removed the line about Chatham-Kent being the Canadian leader for heart disease. I did some research, and although Chatham-Kent has a terribly high instance of heart disease, its not quite the leader.

Religion

I noticed this edit which changed the Catholic population of Chatham-Kent from 36% to 46%, and this edit by the same IP, which changed "No religious affiliation" from 12.2% to 2.2%, so I reviewed the StatsCan data. Here are the percentages I get out of a total population of 105,485:

  • Protestant: 50,980 = 48.3%
  • Catholic: 38,125 = 36.1%
  • Other Christian: 2,835 = 2.7%
  • Other religions: 780 = 0.7%
  • No religious affiliation: 12,775 = 12.1%

I've updated the article with those figures. -- Jim Douglas (talk) (contribs) 17:48, 18 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

WRONG Jim. StatsCan(as usual) has their numbers skewed. My local library(which uses CITY data-not gov't manipulated numbers) has the figures I posted, so there!
