Do I need to submit the employer reference for the job which is not going to make any difference in total experience required?

I am on a post grad work permit. Last year I worked in a skilled category job noc b (Job 1) . I worked for a period of two months. After that I worked for another skilled category noc b job for a period of one year (job 2).
My first job employer doesn't give reference letters. I can't even ask him to give me letter for a bank or something as I am not working there. I've tried everything and he is not going to make a reference letter.
My second job experience is enough for 1 year full time work experience. If I don't show reference for first job then what consequences can be even though second job is enough for experience? Thoughts please.

I am planning to write a letter myself explaining the situation. The letter goes something like this -

To Whom it May concern:
I couldn't get a employment letter from xyz company. I worked there from - to -. My position was abc. I have attached copy of t4 and noa.

Sincerely,
xxxxx

What else should I include in this letter? Please guys give your insights about this situation. Your advice is much appreciated.

I am also in the similar boat and my lawyer said that VO will automatically include last 1 year of experience and if he sees the employment letter ...it should be good.

Thanks for the feedback guys. It helped me a lot. I will write a detailed letter explaining the situation and attaching all the supporting documents I have. Moreover, I left the job in the second month and the probation period was of 3 months. The company didn't give me record of employment letter maybe I left while I was in probationary period. Also, I didn't save my pay stub coz I didn't know back then that I might need them one day so I don't have pay stub. Only proof I have of t4 and noa.
