I'll suggest you remain honest in your applications with Canada.
you wouldn't want to blow away another chance.

I advice you tell the story 'as is' cuz I think the embassies have a way of sharing information between each other.
your situation in Australia doesn't sound like one that would prevent Canada from giving you any permit, but a lie on the form will potentially have you barred from any Canadian immigration program for a period of time.
keep honest, and goodluck!
