I did it at Calgary by making a little weekend side trip to Banff using frequent flyer miles, but not many are not going to spend more on airfare and lodging to get to a specific location in order to save $50.
That's fair!
Perhaps a better question is why we simply don't have both nexus and GE kiosks at these airports.
