In the past, you were supposed to send your school transcripts as proof of graduation.
In the current application, you don't need to send anything about your studies. They may require at a later date, but it's not necessary.
You just have to mention in the forms where you studied and how long you studied.

Does anybody disagree?

I agree.

I just sent (July) a copy of my degree confirmation (just in case), but no transcripts or confirmations were requested. Anyways, anything that happens in Canada is easy to check for them.

Don't include too much that is not explicitly required. It could confuse the officer, he/she might miss one page that is required in the middle of dozens that are not so. If you read this forum that kind of mistake has happened more than once.

I don't agree. I put all the extra information that I am not sure if it's needed at the end of the pile. I also included my degree certification (that mentions 2 dates, the degree ceremony, and the time I was ready to work) cause at some point I mentioned that I was still a registered student even if I started to work (cause usually there is a period between the time you have all the requirements for graduation, and the time of your graduation ceremony when they give you your Uni. degree). It is a good idea to attach a small paper explaining what is every document, or if you have some space, write down in the same document an explanation of what is it and why are you sending it. Officers can get confused for the lack of info or by contradictory info, not for a small over-abundance of info. Having said that, it is common sense not to fill the officer's desk with hundreds and hundreds of papers that can annoy him, don't send dozens of unrequired papers!
