The Anglican Church of Canada, an independent province of the worldwide Anglican Communion, contains thirty dioceses organised into four ecclesiastical provinces (not to be confused, though they often are, with the ACC itself as a "province" of the Anglican Communion, particularly as one of the ACC's four provinces is itself the ecclesiastical province of "Canada," covering eastern Quebec, the Maritime Provinces and Newfoundland.) One of these dioceses, Cariboo, is presently inactive and its parishes are overseen by a suffragan bishop of the Metropolitan of the Ecclesiastical Province of British Columbia and the Yukon.

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

Each diocese has a bishop, four of whom are archbishops serving 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. Dioceses 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 trienially, 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.

1The Anglican Diocese of Cariboo, rendered insolvent by legal claims arising from abuse that occurred in Church-administered First Nations residential schools, ceased to operate as of 2002. The parishes are currently the pastoral responsibility of the Metropolitan of the ecclesiastical province, and overseen by a suffragan bishop to the Metropolitan.

The four metropolitans are:

  • Canada: The Most Rev. Claude W. Miller, Archbishop of Fredericton
  • Rupert's Land: The Most Rev. David Ashdown, Archbishop of Keewatin
  • Ontario: The Most Rev. Colin Johnson, Archbishop of Toronto
  • British Columbia and the Yukon: The Most Rev. Dr. John Privett, Archbishop of Kootenay
