I haven't applied yet I deferred to Jan 2018 since I didn't have much time to apply for my Visa on time but some told me I have to mention it because if I don't it will be immediately be found I don't know how true is it?

Yes, it will affect your chances. But, many applicants get through that. You should explain the reason of previous refusal and why it will not be applicable for Canada (be creative or seek help from members to come up with good logic).
You MUST declare it. No other choice.

In your Canadian application mention-
1. Ties to home country: family members/business/property in your name/job prospect in home country
2. Explain proposed degree's relevance in relation to past education and experience.
3. Get some job advertisement from your country that requires the qualification you are going to attain in canada.

Rest is your writing skills.

If you lie, expect to be refused and banned from Canada for five years. Don't try to 'cook up' a reason for the Australian refusal. Visa officers aren't stupid. They have seen thousands of applications and have seen every trick in the book. Simply list the refusal and the reason why you were refused (as stated by Australian authorities). To have the highest chance of being approved for the Canadian study permit, you'll want to demonstrate ties to your home country (ideally property ownership, etc.) and also make sure the studies you plan to take in Canada make sense in light of your previous education and any experience.

Sounds good to me. If possible, add property and job prospect or advertisement.

Just to add - if you already have a bachelor degree, you will want to be taking at least a post graduate diploma in Canada - a Masters would be much better. Don't go for a regular diploma - that's too much of a step down from the degree you already have. You will have some work to do to overcome the Australian refusal. So you want a strong application. Good luck.
