What about Serbs of Macedonia?

Pretty much this:

Irrelevant, just like Jews, Gypsies and other small minorities

But, Kanchov worked for the Bulgar propaganda machine, so he would have counted all native Slavic speakers as 'Balgari' i'd assume.

But in his book "Makedonia. Etnografia i Statistika", he mentions abit about the Serbs of Macedonia:

Pure Serbs in Macedonia now have about 300 people in the city of Skopje, some from Old Serbia after becoming Skopje vilayski towns, others from Serbia about the Serbian agency and the Serbian schools as clerks and craftsmen. [ 2 ] In the region of Skopje, there is one Serb-Bosnian village, Hasan Begovo , with about 50 Bosnian Muslims, born in Bosnia in a new town. In Tetovo there are several Croatian brothers from the Prizrens who have been taught in language. Finally there are about 100 Serbs in Salonika, all of whom live as clerks and teachers in the consulate and school in Serbia, and as commission agents for trade with Serbia.

This is the actual quote i mentioned before from his book called "Orohidrografija na Makedonija":

The local Bulgarians and Kucovlachs who live in the area of Macedonia call themselves Macedonians, and the surrounding nations also call them so. Turks and Arnauts from Macedonia do not call themselves Macedonians, but when asked where they are from, they respond: from Macedonia. Arnauts from the north and north west limits of the area, who also call their country Anautluk, and Greeks who live in the southern areas, do not call themselves Macedonians, hence the borders in these areas according to the peoples’ perception are not clearly defined.

So even though he had to follow a script and call Macedonians 'Balgari', he just could not hide the fact that these so called 'Balgari' actually called themselves Macedonians from Macedonia, and so did their neighbouring people.

Have you seen his other quote from another one of his books where he states that: "Bulgarians and Vlachs of Macedonia call themselves Macedonians, and the surrounding nations call them Macedonians. Turks and Albanians do not call themselves Macedonians. Greeks from the south don't call themselves Macedonians". That's a paraphrase of what Kanchov said purple butt.

You forgot the part where the Chinese and Japanese also called them Macedonians.
