I'm visiting some manufacturer's in Hong Kong/China and will have some prototypes/samples that won't fit in my carry-on that I'm looking at dropping off to my colleague who will meet me in the non-sterile area of YYZ before I head onto my yyz-las flight.
I've been reading that UA doesn't allow short-checking, how about AC?
You can certainly ask for them to short check your bag. You don't need an elaborate story to justify, just tell them you need to get something out of your bag in YYZ.
