Should I avoid telling the visa officer that I have an aunt in Canada even if he/she ask me? I don't want to tell that in order to avoid visa rejection. Need suggestions.
What if the visa officer rejects my application with an objection that I will not return from Canada after completing studies since I have relatives there?You should answer all questions truthfully to avoid having your application be refused for misrepresentation and potentially issued a 5 year ban from Canada.

Then you'll need to demonstrate stronger ties to your home country.
Like someone already mentioned, you don't have to lie if you can satisfy the visa officer that you are a genuine student and you have employment prospects in your home country after your study.
Is she closely related to you to be considered a close relative? Everybody has a distant aunt/ uncle/ cousin/ someone in Canada but does not necessarily count as a close relative. If that is the case, you dont have to mention her.
