I would caution you that it might be dangerous to do that. The voltages of the electricity supplied to houses in some European countries differ from the one on this continent. For anything short-term, they sell converters that can protect your equipment when plugging into a non-standard outlet, which would be much safer.
However, to answer your question, in a European house you would need the final line transformer providing 230V from the power company to have a center tapped neutral, which they do not currently have, and so you would have to have a custom transformer... who knows what that would take in terms of safety regulations or permits.
(In the US 240V is the main voltage coming into the house, and they use a center tapped transformer secondary tied to house neutral on the house side. The voltages available inside the US house are 120V from each line to neutral and 240V from line to line.)

Are the two prongs on a UK shaver plug the same size as a European electrical socket or do I need an adapter to change it from Shaver to European?
An adapter is needed to use a North American shaver in Europe. European outlets are a different size along with a different voltage that you shaver is rated for. An Adapter will take care of both of these problems.

Can you use 220 volt home theatre in Canada What is needed to do to plug it in?
Yes Canada has 220 volts. The nominal voltage is 230 volts. That being said the most common voltage for home theatres in North America is 120 volts. If the unit is being brought in from an European country it will have probably been designed to operate on 50 Hertz frequency. In North America the frequency is 60 Hertz. This will probably have an effect on the performance of the unit. The other thing to be aware of is that the European TV format is different than the one used in North America. The European format is PAL whereas the North American format uses NTSC.
