I personally haven't done it myself, but my understanding is if your infant is sitting on your lap, then you can either gate check the car seat, or you will have to check it as luggage. It doesn't however count against your checked baggage allowance (it's free to check it).
If you are purchasing a separate seat for your infant so you have more space, then your infant must be strapped into the car seat on the plane during takeoff, landing and whenever the seatbelt sign is on.
Those are the rules for Air Canada at least. Other airlines may have a different policy.
