Less than one percent of the population of any state with cancer? I have to say I'm a bit surprised. Of course, in our area of South Carolina, stroke is the major killer.

Health Canada puts Ontario's rate at 400 per 100,000 (.4%). However, it's difficult to drawn nay meaningful geographical conclusions without access to data sampled at a finer level (e.g. census district). This would be especially true of a province as large and geographically diverse as Ontario. I would expect the rate to increase in some localities though, especially in those places heavily dependant on metal processing (like where I am right now, where there are three steel mills in operation).
