If you have a valid RTD it implies that you have received a NOD.

I have re-entered canada 4+ times using my RTD and they have never asked for my NOD. Before boarding 1 flight to the UK the airline asked to see my work or study permit so I would recommend having that with you. CBSA never asked for it on exit or entry.

Upon re-entry to canada you go to the immigration machines that everyone goes to to get a 'receipt', then you stand in line to see the first CBSA officer, answer their questions (travel related) and while most people then go to the baggage claim you will be asked to go to 'further screening' which is another set of CBSA officers who will ask you where you traveled to, why you went and if you visited your home country- answer truthfully and that's it.
The time waiting behind others to talk to a CBSA officer is the longest. The interview with the CBSA officer did not last more than 2-5mins each.
