The office of Commander-in-Chief, North America was a military position of the British Army. Established in 1755 in the early years of the Seven Years' War, holders of the post were generally responsible for land-based military personnel and activities in and around those parts of North America that Great Britain either controlled or contested. The post continued to exist until 1775, when Lieutenant-General Thomas Gage, the last holder of the post, was replaced early in the American War of Independence. The post's responsibilities were then divided: Major-General William Howe became Commander-in-Chief, America, responsible for British troops from West Florida to Newfoundland, and General Guy Carleton became Commander-in-Chief, Quebec, responsible for the defence of the Province of Quebec.

rdfs:comment	Naczelny dowódca brytyjskich sił zbrojnych w Ameryce (ang. Commander-in-Chief, North America) – zwierzchnik sił brytyjskich sił zbrojnych w Ameryce Północnej. Stanowisko to istniało do 1859 roku. Po Konfederacji Kanady od 1875 roku jego następcami zostali Dowódcy Armii Kanadyjskiej. (pl) 北美英軍總司令（英語：Commander-in-Chief, North America），是指英國陸軍在1755年至1875年間於北美洲的最高司令。該職位在七年戰爭期間首次創立。1775年美國獨立戰爭爆發後，北美英軍總司令一職拆分為兩個職位：新北美英軍總司令（英語：Commander-in-Chief, America）負責西佛羅里達至紐芬蘭的戰區，而魁北克英軍總司令（英語： Commanders-in-Chief, Quebec ）則負責加拿大戰區。1783年美國獨立戰爭結束後，英軍失去北美大片殖民地，統轄北美陸軍的職責逐漸落在魁北克英軍總司令身上。1791年，英軍將魁北克英軍總司令更名為加拿大英軍總司令（英語：Commander-in-Chief, The Canadas）。1867年加拿大聯邦化，英軍在1875年正式裁撤北美英軍總司令一職，改為，逐步將軍事權力轉移至加拿大陸軍。 (zh) The office of Commander-in-Chief, North America was a military position of the British Army.
