The OP is afraid that he may already have been denied entry. There are thus two possibilities were he to attempt to cross the border:

* They do not find any problems and allow him entry. Now he knows he's OK.
* They find out he was denied entry earlier, and he's denied entry again. He's no worse off than before.

Yes, be cautious. A few years after 9/11 I was on the US side of Niagara. A lady told me that my drivers license was enough to get to the other side. So I tried my luck and was denied entry. They took my information and put it in their records. I have always been sent to detention when transiting Canada. That was while I was an Indian citizen. Then I became a US citizen and the drama still continues. Don't know how they tracked me down. But since OP has used his Canadian passport without problems, I think he is okay.
