Salvation Army is included (under the Methodist and Wesleyan).

I tallied Anabaptists (mostly Mennonites), Baptists, Methodists and Wesleyans (includes Salvation Army), Pentecostals, Reformed, other Christian denominations and unspecified Christians as a proxy for evangelical. Admittedly imperfect since the census doesn't measure religious commitment but religious identity. All these denominations are part of the Evangelical Fellowship of Canada.

The numbers seem reasonable except for Quebec where 8% seems far too high.

Here's the religious classification hierarachy: https://www12.statcan.gc.ca/census-r...g.cfm?ID=a2_14

The greater level of specificity (Mennonites within Anabaptist, Salvation Army within Methodist) isn't available at the Census Division level but that's just as well as it would take longer to tally up and probably not radically change the numbers.
