The M40 RCL was used by virtually every NATO/Western nation at some time or another, and many of those manufactured their own ammunition for either the 106MM or the .50 spotter. That said, I have not (yet) seen any reference that says that Canada ever made .50 spotter. I would think it would have sourced either US or UK supplies.
Pictured below are headstamps for a UK-made (Kynoch) L10A1 Drill round, a US-made (Frankford Arsenal) M48A1 Armour Piercing Incendiary Tracer, and a Spanish-made (Santa Barbara) M48A1.
