List of dioceses of the Anglican Church of Canada


The Anglican Church of Canada, a member church of the worldwide Anglican Communion, contains twenty nine dioceses and one non-diocesan administrative region organised into four ecclesiastical provinces.

Most dioceses are contiguous with a single civil province or territory. The five exceptions are the Arctic, Keewatin, Moosonee, Ottawa, and Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island dioceses.

Each diocese has a bishop, four of whom are archbishops as metropolitans of their ecclesiastical province. Dioceses are self-governing entities, incorporated under the Corporations Act of the civil province or territory in which they are active. Diocesan synods generally meet annually and have responsibility for all aspects of church life, except that which concerns doctrine, discipline, or worship. These matters are the purview of the General Synod of the national church, which meets triennially and at other times delegates its powers to an elected body of clergy and laity called the Council of General Synod and to the Primate of the Anglican Church of Canada.
