But as what I know, depends you are an international student or an immigrant; and before you immigrated, you claimed this or not.

Tax base is not just salary, bonus....it also includes stock, property like vacation house money, gifts from others..., money from dead person's will....
It will be difficult for CRA to determine whether the money is from me or from my parents. If I claim that this is my own money in China, I don't think they should charge me any tax.
