It’s best to read the charter to get a sense of what I mean, along with me explaining it better.I searched for a list and found a reference to a site which listed some but it did not identify the "law" that requires them.

"Citizenship Responsibilities
In Canada, rights come with responsibilities. These include:
Do you know where they are identified in the laws of the land?
- Obeying the law — One of Canada’s founding principles is the rule of law. Individuals and governments are regulated by laws and not by arbitrary actions. No person or group is above the law.
- Taking responsibility for oneself and one’s family — Getting a job, taking care of one’s family and working hard in keeping with one’s abilities are important Canadian values. Work contributes to personal dignity and self-respect, and to Canada’s prosperity.
- Serving on a jury — When called to do so, you are legally required to serve. Serving on a jury is a privilege that makes the justice system work as it depends on impartial juries made up of citizens.
- Voting in elections — The right to vote comes with a responsibility to vote in federal, provincial or territorial and local elections.
- Helping others in the community — Millions of volunteers freely donate their time to help others without pay—helping people in need, assisting at your child’s school, volunteering at a food bank or other charity, or encouraging newcomers to integrate. Volunteering is an excellent way to gain useful skills and develop friends and contacts.
- Protecting and enjoying our heritage and environment — Every citizen has a role to play in avoiding waste and pollution while protecting Canada’s natural, cultural and architectural heritage for future generations."
An example is that we have the right to religious expression, however, we are limited in that we must accept that others have that same right as well and we aren’t allowed to infringe on others. There is a social responsibility there that doesn’t start and end with ‘my rights’.
Each rights and freedoms category lists the limitations.
Another is equality rights. We are all protected under the charter in terms of being treated with equal respect, however, this doesn’t mean that everyone gets has the right to be treated the exact same. In order to respect the cultures of others, sometimes we are required to accept differences as a means of respecting equality. There is a responsibility in terms of behaviour there to go along with the rights and freedoms.
In essence, “my rights” is only half of the charter, “the rights of others” is the other half that requires a level of respect and responsibility on the part of each citizen. In the end it is all of us to ensure the rights and freedoms of all of us are maintained.
