I then boarded without incident and my bags arrived YYZ without incident.

I wasn't sure what the deal was. I had been waiting in the MLL and was not called or anything. Why would I have been offloaded?? I had OLCI'd the day before around the 24 hour mark, was not on the upgrade list because J was full. It was a strange and a first for me.
Wierd all around. I checked in 4 hours prior, so I wasn't a last minute checkin.

I'm going to write Air Canada for Followup. It should never come to that.
