The executive branch is made up of the cabinet and PM. The cabinet runs the day-to-day business in government and are appointed by the Prime Minister.

They put laws into action and propose most of the ideas that become laws.

Well, actually the entire cabinet forms the executive, the PM being the head of it, and its parliamentary official name is the "Privy Council"

But, its not a true "branch", not in the American sense, as all cabinet members are members of Parliament, either in the House of Commons or the Senate. In Canada, the legislative and executive are interwoven, so the branches are more like those of a hedge, not a tree.

The Prime Minister and his cabinet would be considered the executive branch of the Canadian government (in 2011 the Prime Minister is Stephen Harper). Formally, the Governor General is Canada's Chief Executive Officer, who exercises the executive authority vested in the Queen with the advice and consent of the Ministers, either collectively or individually. The Ministers also have Parliamentary Secretaries, and are supported by the civil service.
