I wouldn't worry about it. It sounds like it was just an excuse to take a further look at you, similar to a police officer's subjectivity to seeing you making a questionable lane change. They didn't find anything, and they didn't deem you to be anything other than what you said and the case you presented.

I would imagine if you transited other Canadian airports, you would get the same experience you had in Vancouver and at other airports, the same experience you got in Calgary.


I've crossed the border dozens of times, probably over a hundred times. I've had the inconsistent thing happen going into Canada many times.

Again, I wouldn't worry about it.
