I just did my landing in Canada for immigration purposes but I still live abroad. I have no significant residential ties in Canada, but I opened a bank account with a credit card. I am also planning to get my driver's license.
Do I have to pay Canadian income taxes?

No, you do not have to pay Canadian income taxes because you are a non-resident of Canada based on your limited ties to Canada. When you permanently move to Canada, you will become a tax resident at that time.
