What a strange question.
In Quebec you are obligated by law to help, don't think that applies to the rest of Canada.

I wouldn't just sit by when someone was choking if I could help them (and I can). I was more curious about the other three folk's statements that I was actually legally obligated to help since I knew what to do. I would think a law like that would be hard to pass and even harder to enforce. I would, of course, hope that such a law not be needed in the first place. But it was an interesting question to me.
