House of Bishops

The House of Bishops is one of three "houses" or orders making up General Synod, the chief governing body of the Anglican Church of Canada. The other two houses are clergy and laity. Chaired by the Primate, the House of Bishops consists of all bishops in Canada, including diocesan, suffragan, and coadjutor bishops. The House of Bishops meets regularly and issues pastoral and other statements from time to time.
