Does walking or skating burn more calories?!

It is dependent on the amount of exertion. In general depending on the time you spend doing each and the overall effort walking will usually burn more calories. The reason being that while skating you are using less force to propel yourself into motion. There for you will use more energy to walk even though both seem fairly effortless. It some cases your legs may feel more worn out while skating but this is because you are using primarily your legs. When walking you are actually using more muscles than just your legs.
