The Canada Communist Party (Marxist-Leninist) / Parti communiste du Canada (marxiste-l�niniste), founded in 1970, was registered with Elections Canada as the Marxist-Leninist Party of Canada / Parti marxiste-l�niniste du Canada for the federal election of 2004.

In 1999, the party celebrated the 60th anniversary of the birth of its founder, Hardial Bains (1939-1997) and erected the party's commemorative monument in the national cemetary of Beechwood, in Ottawa.

The monument shows the red flag of modern communism, in 8' x 5'6" size. The red flag is charged with the hammer and sickle and star of the party. The flag is made of granite from Jhansi, in India. In 1853, Queen Lakhsmi Bai led an army of 14,000 volunteers in order to denfend Jhansi against the British invaders; she was captured in 1858 and escaped to the fortress of Kalpi, where she built up anohter rebeld' army and was eventually killed during the assault of the fortress. The party flag shall represent the banner of sacrifice and progress, as well as the emblem of the overthrowing of the exploiters and everything behind the times and oppressive. The red colour represents the blood shed by the world martyres, the working masses and the democratic and progressive forces all over the world. Red is the colour of scientific socialism and communism.

A Pro-Palestinian "End the Occupation Now!" flag with their logo in the upper-left corner:

A red-field flag of the "Communist Party of Canada (Marxist-Leninist)" or "Marxist-Leninist Party of Canada" but with text that reads: "End the Occupation Now!" (referring to the Israeli occupation of the Gaza Strip and the "West Bank"), with a flower-logo containing the Marxist "hammer & sickle" inside a red-star, and the initials "CML, CA" apparently for "Communist Marxist-Leninist, Canada" Party; c. Aug. 2022 in a "Free Palestine" demonstration in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
