Theoretically, only the Pope can make someone a saint (I think - feel
free to prove me wrong) and so, theoretically, Anglicans have exactly
the same list. It's just that Catholics pay more attention to the
saints and they're more integrated into Catholicism (children's middle
names being given on the grounds that it's St. [middlename]'s Day, etc).
