    The domestic Nexus/FastTrack line is not very efficient; next time I will consider using the regular line.

    If you're a frequent flyer, even domestic, get a Nexus card.

    Customs officers don't like Aussies. Best put on a British accent and bad-mouth the Yanks...

    Ask the customs agents why Canadian $1 & $2 coins are nicknamed after cartoons just to see their reactions. Their explanations are comical..

    Great wifi access but restrooms are a little far from the bar. Bars need more space for bags and fewer tables

    In the evening, pick up passengers on the departures level instead of arrivals. It's much quieter.
