If I have no exemptions or deductions, just a simple paycheck, do I HAVE to file taxes?
Yes, you have to file a tax return in Canada.  Non residents that have earned employment income in Canada are required to file a Canadian personal income tax return. Usually, your employer will have deducted sufficient taxes from your pay-cheques, resulting in a tax refund upon filing your Canadian tax return. You will also receive a tax credit on your US tax return for taxes paid in Canada.
