In order to make the canvas full screen width and height always, meaning even when the browser is resized, you need to run your draw loop within a function that resizes the canvas to the window.innerHeight and window.innerWidth.

#HTML

#JavaScript

(function() {
    var canvas = document.getElementById('canvas'),
            context = canvas.getContext('2d');

    // resize the canvas to fill browser window dynamically
    window.addEventListener('resize', resizeCanvas, false);
    
    function resizeCanvas() {
            canvas.width = window.innerWidth;
            canvas.height = window.innerHeight;
            
            /**
             * Your drawings need to be inside this function otherwise they will be reset when 
             * you resize the browser window and the canvas goes will be cleared.
             */
            drawStuff(); 
    }
    resizeCanvas();
    
    function drawStuff() {
            // do your drawing stuff here
    }
})();

#CSS

* { margin:0; padding:0; } /* to remove the top and left whitespace */

html, body { width:100%; height:100%; } /* just to be sure these are full screen*/

canvas { display:block; } /* To remove the scrollbars */

That is how you properly make the canvas full width and height of the browser. You just have to put all the code for drawing to the canvas in the drawStuff() function.
