Legislation - In Canada laws are made at the federal level by Parliament and at the provincial levels by the provincial legislatures. There is a process involved which carries what is called a Bill (or a proposed law) into force when it receives Royal Assent, or on a day specified in the legislation, or upon proclamation.
Common Law - Law is also created in Canada, and throughout out the common law countries of the world, by judges. Common law is judge made law. When a judge makes a decision in a case, it becomes a binding precedent which other judges must follow if faced with the same issue. However, the law, as with most things, changes in time too. So, what is law today could change tomorrow, or next week, or in 20 years, etc..
Therefore, in Canada, the elected officials make law (legislation, or written laws), and judges make law (common law).
The President of the United States signs bills into law. After both Houses of Congress pass the bill, it gets sent to the President to be approved by his/her signature. Thus Congress passes bills, but the President signs them into law.
The bill can become law without the President's signature, if he/she vetoes the bill and Congress overrides it by 2/3 vote of each House of Congress or if the President does nothing for ten days and Congress is still in session. Then it becomes law without the President's signature. If Congress adjourns during the 10 day period before the President signs the bill, the bill does not become a law. This is called the "pocket veto."
Bills are signed into law by the Queen of Canada's representative in Canada. The process is just one of formality, the representative will sign any bill passed by the Canadian Legislature.

When the Senate and the House approve a bill, they send it to the President. If he agrees with the law, he signs it and the law goes into effect. Thus, the answer is the executive branch that actually signs the bill into law seeing that the president is the head of the executive branch.
