If you have done this after "Layer>Layer to image size" then the layer 
has been cropped and "Image>Fit canvas to layers" won't to anything 
since the layer is already the same size as the canvas.

If you zoom out so that the canvas does doesn't fill the whole window, 
do you see the layer boundary (dotted line) outside of the canvas?
