What law says we actually have to submit a tax file?

The Income Tax Act, subsection 150(1). You don't actually have to file a return unless there is tax payable, or, CRA has sent you a demand under 150(2). It is often to your advantage to file even if you don't owe anything, though - sometimes you can get a refund, and you can gain RRSP room by filing.

It makes me feel better to know that you guys in Canada too. I thought the US had a monopoly on tax nuts.

Income Tax Act

Employers actually have to submit Income Tax on behalf of the employee - it determines their payroll tax.
