At peak times the line for US preclearance extends outside the room, I cannot recall if Global entry allows you to bypass that line but I do not think it does. Someone may contradict me, so Sunday PM/Monday AM Thursday and Friday PM leave extra time.
The CATSA security clearance is AFTER the US border services and customs checkpoints.
