It could very from state to state but I suspect the federal gov't regulates all that. In Michigan, the legal maximum capacity is 6 shells.

Improving answer: Canada is not Michigan. But within Canada, there are Provinces. So I think they can have their own gun and ammo laws that may be tighter than the National law. Also, there is often a difference in what is allowed for hunting and what is allowed for other purposes. For example, under U.S. federal law (actually a treaty) a shotgun used to hunt migrating waterfowl (ducks, geese) can only hold 3 rounds maximum. 2 in the magazine and one directly in the chamber. But for deer hunting with slugs, 5 rounds is OK in most states.

How many shells can be legally chambered in a shotgun?

Only one can be chambered unless you have a double barrel, then there can be two. If you mean how many can be in the magazine of a repeating shotgun, you can have onlyone in the chamber and two in the magazine when hunting migratory waterfowl. Otherwise, as many as it will hold (commonly 5 in most pumps or automatics and 3 in bolt actions). However, if you live in an anti-gun state like Kalifornia or New Jersey, there may be legal limits, but they should only affect "hi-capacity" removable magazines, ie, no magazines that hold more than 9 shells.

What does removing the plug on a shotgun do?

A shotgun typically stores 5 rounds in its magazine. In some countries, when hunting certain types of game, you are only allowed 3 rounds in your magazine.
