Anglican Network in Canada
The Anglican Network in Canada (ANiC) is a group of Anglican churches in Canada and the United States established in 2005 under the jurisdiction of the Anglican Province of the Southern Cone, a province of the Anglican Communion. It was a founding diocese of the Anglican Church in North America in June 2009. It comprises over 70 congregations in nine Canadian provinces, Alberta, British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland & Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Quebec, and two American states, Massachusetts and Vermont. Their first Moderator Bishop was Don Harvey, from 2009 to 2014, when he was succeeded by Diocesan Bishop Charlie Masters. Bishop Dan Gifford became Diocesan Bishop in 2022.
