  • The Anglican Catholic Church of Canada (ACCC) is an Anglican church that was founded in the 1970s by conservative Anglicans who were dissatisfied with decisions made by the Anglican Church of Canada (ACC) to confer priestly ordination upon women and to make liturgical reforms that would evolve into the Book of Alternative Services. The Anglican Catholic Church of Canada continues to maintain an all-male clergy and recently has criticised what it considers to be the parent church's increasing acceptance of homosexuality. The church uses exclusively the 1962 Book of Common Prayer and rejects the possibility of remarriage after divorce. With 41 congregations in Canada, the ACCC is the third-largest of the Anglican churches in Canada, after the ACC and the Anglican Church in North America. Like the similarly named American body, the Anglican Catholic Church of Canada is a product of the Congress of St. Louis which founded the Continuing Anglican Movement with the signing of the Affirmation of St. Louis, and was carved out of the original jurisdiction of the Anglican Church in North America. Today, however, it is unaffiliated with the US Anglican Catholic Church. Instead, the ACCC is a member of the Traditional Anglican Communion (TAC), represented in the United States by the Anglican Church in America. The ACCC has about forty-five parishes and missions throughout Canada, as well as one parish in Washington State. Although most ACCC congregations are relatively small the church has also experienced steady growth in recent years, especially in Alberta and the Atlantic provinces. The current bishop of the Anglican Catholic Church of Canada is the Right Reverend Peter Wilkinson of Victoria, British Columbia. The TAC is currently discussing a form of union with the Roman Catholic Church and states that it has no doctrinal differences with Rome sufficient to prevent the success of this proposal . On January 27, 2007 two suffragan bishops, the Right Reverend Craig Botterill and the Right Reverend Carl Reid, were consecrated by the Primate of the Traditional Anglican Communion, Archbishop John Hepworth, assisted by the Diocesan and Metropolitan, Bishop Peter Wilkinson and retired Bishop Robert Mercer, CR.
  • La Chiesa Anglicana Cattolica del Canada (Anglican Catholic Church of Canada o ACCC) è una chiesa Anglicana fondata nel 1977 da anglicani conservatori insoddisfatti per le decisioni della Chiesa Anglicana del Canada di conferire l'Ordine sacro alle donne e di intraprendere riforme liturgiche che sarebbero divenute il "Book of Alternative Services". La Chiesa Anglicana Cattolica del Canada continua a mantenere un clero interamente maschile, e di recente ha criticato la crescente accettazione dell'omosessualità in seno alla chiesa madre. La Chiesa Anglicana Cattolica del Canada è la seconda maggiore chiesa anglicana Canada. Come la Chiesa Anglicana Cattolica degli Stati Uniti, la Chiesa Anglicana Cattolica del Canada trova la sua origine nel Congresso di St. Louis, che vide la nascita del Movimento Anglicano di Continuazione con la firma dell'Affermazione di St. Louis, ma non ha relazioni di altro tipo con la chiesa statunitense. La Chiesa Anglicana Cattolica del Canada è membro della Comunione Anglicana Tradizionale, rappresentata negli Stati Uniti dalla Chiesa Anglicana in America. La Chiesa Anglicana Cattolica del Canada ha 45 parrocchie e missioni in Canada, ed una parrocchia nello stato di Washington. Benché la maggior parte delle congregazioni della Chiesa Anglicana Cattolica del Canada siano relativamente piccole, la chiesa ha avuto un momento di costante crescita negli ultimi anni, specialmente nelle Province dell'Alberta e della costa atlantica. Attualmente il vescovo della Chiesa Anglicana Cattolica del Canada è Peter Wilkinson di Victoria,. La Comunione Anglicana Tradizionale sta attualmente discutendo una forma di unione con la Chiesa cattolica e afferma che non ha differenze dottrinali con Roma sufficienti a compromettere il successo di questa proposta. Il 27 gennaio, 2007 il Primate della Comunione Anglicana Tradizionale, Arcivescovo John Hepworth, assistito dall'Ordinario Diocesano e Metropolita, Peter Wilkinson e dal vescovo emerito Robert Mercer ha consacrato due vescovi ausiliari Craig Botterill e Carl Reid.
