CarComplaints.com Notes: While the 2005 GMC Canyon doesn't show any major complaint trends, it's mechanically-identical counterpart is the Chevy Colorado which has some engine problems.
I heard from other forum that this problem is very common for this model so i started to look into that , I clean the camshaft sensor/solenoid and could find anything wrong.
couple days later the CEL light came on again so I went on the Internet and somebody mentioned that when your oil gets a little bit old the sensor doesn't react properly.
So i got an oil change and the light never returned, touch wood!
