hmmm...so that means it takes 50-55 min. going into Canada without Nexus and w/ checked bags. Giving me potentially 10 min. boarding before departure and no room for slight delays.

There's another YYC-YEG AC connection exactly 1 hour later, which gives me 125 minutes (instead of 65) --- would that be a safer choice?
I can't risk missing the connection and then finding out I can't get rebooked if the that flight 1hr later is full.
