When you arrive in YYZ you clear Canada Customs and then you go upstairs to International depatures? not sure if i understood your question?
On your return assuming the same flights you clear Canada Customs (two makeshift counters on the left hand side before the escalators) and then proceed to US customs to clear them for your trip home. Mind you, I think you still need to exit the secured area and have to re enter the secured US Transfer area if you have baggage!
