I'd certainly make reservations, and probably farther in advance than the day of, day before. These parks are busy. Both Jasper and Banff. With a lot of campers, RVers, cyclists, tour-buses, and just vehicle traffic.
A number of the camp grounds, and Provincial Parks near me are already nearly full for the May long weekend (we started looking in Mar), some of the reservations were placed last year. You're probably taking your chances waiting until the day of. Whistlers just outside Jasper is a huge camp site, so you could get lucky there.
I'm not a shill either, but the All-Stays app for iPhone will show you campgrounds, what they have, how many sites, pet friendly, length restrictions (a number of Banff's campgrounds have restrictions) etc... for National Parks, Provincial Parks, Private sites, etc... it makes trip planning a bit easier.
