What will they know at the airport?

If a person from a visa-exempt country comes to Canada to enter as a visitor, would the CBSA agents know about their past history in Canada? For example, having a bank account, having a company (self-employed), phone bills that weren't paid for?

Everything immigration related.

So that excludes the things mentioned by me? I'm talking about a person who had visa extensions in the past and a work permit for a short amount of time. Can CIC/CBSA get a hold of that information without it ever being reported to them?

Thanks for your help.
