Statistics Canada's census data reports that Canada is home to 20,000 Jedi, mainly in British Columbia, Ontario, and Alberta (where the Conservative Alliance and the rednecks hang out). Jedi, I am pleased to report, massively outnumber Scientologists, by just over 13 to 1. In Britain, Jedi outnumber Jews: there are 390,000 Jedi, or 0.75% of the census respondents, making the Jedi way the fourth largest religion in Britain.
HogBlog has assembled a crack team of prognosticatechnicians equipped with the finest psychohistorical techniques known to modern science to bring you an exclusive look at what the census data ten years from now will reveal about our changing world. In Britain, Time Lords will become the second-largest religious group, pulling far ahead of the Anglicans. 98% of the population of New Zealand will report themselves to be Hobbits. The Church of Scientology will report that its membership exceeds the population of the Earth while in reality shrinking solely to John Travolta, while America finds itself split religiously between X-Men and Vulcans, venerating the Great Prophet Nimoy. Canada's Jedi population will grow exponentially, except in Alberta, where the unwary will be lured over to the Dark Side by Stephen Harper.
The Time Lords vs Jedi football matches will be the stuff of legend.
