IT MOST CERTAINLY IS! I doesn't matter if the government doesn't call it such, but its status has never been changed by any Act of Parliament or Order in Council.
I personally prefer calling Canada eaither a Kingdom or a Realm--of which it is both. The Prime Minister of the time, William Lyon Mackenzie King, upon welcoming HM King George VI to Canada in 1939 ( the first visit by the Monarch to the country ), said "Welcome, Sire, to your Kingdom of Canada."
