(The) Anglican Church of Canada Act

The Anglican Church of Canada Act is a law that officially establishes the Anglican Church as a national religious organization within Canada. It recognizes the church’s structure, governance, and legal status, allowing it to operate across the country. The Act clarifies how the church is organized, including its relationship with the government, ensuring it can carry out its religious, educational, and charitable activities while being subject to Canadian laws. Essentially, it provides a legal framework that supports the church’s national role and autonomy within the legal system of Canada.
