The Anglican Deanery of Thunder Bay is one of five deaneries that comprise the Anglican Diocese of Algoma. The deanery has twelve churches and one mission, is served by ten clergy. It includes the Anglican parishes from Marathon on the east to Rosslyn Village and Murillo on the west.

In 1976, the Diocese was restructured to close the Deanery of Superior. The parish of Nipigon (including Red Rock, Dorion, and Schreiber) and the parish of Manitouwadge (including Marathon) were moved to the Deanery of Thunder Bay. 

The current Archdeacon of Thunder Bay is the Venerable Deborah Kraft.
