It's not so simple but it's not complicated either. The
regs detail what needs to be installed and working for any particular
sort of flight (day VFR, night VFR, and so on) and if something is
dead, something like a landing light, it must be snagged in the
logbook and then deferred if you want to keep flying. Determining who
can defer a defect becomes your job. There are things (like fuel
gauges) that have to be working all the time and can't be deferred.
See CAR 605.14 thru 605.41 to see what you need:

Then see CAR 605.10 to see how to deal with dead stuff:

I would proffer that in those airframes which have a KOEL or MEL which
is more restrictive for required equipment you are required to abide
by that above and beyond what is explicitly listed in the regs.
