Do I need to submit my charitable donation receipts when I file my taxes?

No. No matter how you file (via NETFILE or by mail), you do not need to send your donation receipts to the CRA.

However, you should keep them for your records in case the CRA requests them at a later date. The CRA advises taxpayers to keep their supporting documents for six years.
