Canadian Census
The North American Data Bank's archives on Canada largely contain PDF reports summarizing information from the Canadian Census, which (unlike the U.S. Census) includes questions on religion and ethnicity. In addition, the Data Bank has archived several surveys of major Jewish communities in Canada, which explore topics (such as travel to and attitudes towards Israel, etc.) which are not included in the Canadian Census.
Reports on Jewish Canada are organized into national statistics on Canadian Jewry as a whole (which often include geographic comparisons) and parallel reports for major centers of Jewish residence.

Jewish Identity in Canada and the United States, 1990-1991
Jewish Identity in Canada and The United States: 1990-1991 (PDF) was written by Barry A. Kosmin, and published in 1994. It provides a comparison of the Jewish populations of Canada and the the United States using the 1990 NJPS and the Canadian Government Census of 1991. It concludes that the societal processes affecting Jews in both nations are similar and the gap is not as wide as some might have predicted.
