Global Entry and CBSA

Asking this mostly out of curiosity...

As a UK resident, UK citizen, I'm aware that Global Entry offers me nothing when entering Canada. However, will the CBSA agent who processes me be able to see that I have GE?

Most liekly not. I from the UK too but did my interview at a Nexus centre and the CBSA officer said to me that it's a US only program and will not effect me at all when arriving into canada

No, GE is strictly an American program and they share no information with Canada.

It likely wouldn't help much even if they did, the most painful part of entering Canada for UK citizens is waiting in the long non-US/Canada passports line.

Exit and entry logs are now shared with Canada when departing and arriving from the US to other countries besides Canada.

Canada doesn't generally care to provide non-NEXUS, GE members with special CBSA processing. GE status is generally not in the shared exit and entry logs.

The trip logs that are generated by a GE kiosk are. And that was my point.
