Sorry, just had to vent about my experience today...

AT the YYZ T1 Transborder checkpoint, I was directed into the same lane used by flight crews. When I got into the line, there were a few people in front of me waiting to put their stuff into the x-ray, so I got my stuff ready for my turn. I was all ready, laptops and liquids out, everything on the belt, when the flight crew for a flight shows up together - 6 crew members in total.

I was the next person to put my stuff into the x-ray at this point. 5 of the crew members decide to cut in front of me, while the captain of the flight lets me proceed through the checkpoint first. I had to stand around for an extra few minutes waiting for them to get their stuff out of their bags, but I was all ready to go.

Now, I understand the flight crew get priority over regular passengers - but come on... if you see that I am all ready to proceed through the WTMD, will I really slow you down that much if you let me go first?

I should have thanked the captain loudly, within earshot of his colleagues, for his courtesy to allow me to proceed before going through himself, even though he could have cut in front of me as well.
