Canadian law is a set of laws gathered from unlike civilizations and one of them happens to be code of Hammurabi. Hammurabi's code has 282 laws all covering various topics. He organized his laws under groups such as family, labor, personal property, real estate, trade, and business. Our own government, copies this technique, when making laws they are placed into their fitting group of similar laws. This type of organization was created in Hammurabi's code. Hammurabi based his code on many beliefs like, the strong should not harm the weak, and that the time should fit the crime. In government today they very much believe in this too, however they do not have the same punishments Hammurabi had made. In the code, crimes punishable by death needed a trial in front of judges. These crimes were bigamy, incest, kidnapping, adultery and theft. There are also laws comparable to today.

If you mean: is Hammurabi's Code still in use somewhere as a code of Law, the answer is no. If you mean: could we decide to use all or part of it as part of our present-day legal system, the answer I'm afraid is also no. Hammurabi's Code was - despite its name - not a code of law. It was a collection of verdicts Hammurabi had made in disputes brought before him. In today's legal systems, practically any dispute you could think of is already covered by existing laws or jurisdiction, or both. You cannot have two systems of law or jurisdiction for the same dispute, and today's jurisdiction would always take first place over Hammurabi's old verdicts.
