Canada was the host nation for the 1976 Summer Olympics in Montreal. 385 competitors, 261 men and 124 women, took part in 173 events in 23 sports.

For the first and, so far, only time in Summer Olympics history, the host nation failed to obtain a gold medal.

Canada finished in 27th position in the final medal rankings, with five silver medals and six bronze medals.

Canada was represented by two women and two men in Montreal. It was the second time Canadians had competed in archery. Lucille Lemay became the most successful Canadian Olympic archer by taking 5th place, surpassing Donald Jackson's 6th-place finish four years earlier. Canada placed sixth in the national standings for archery.
