Yeah, they could pay for 3 CATSA agents to stand around to process the handful of NEXUS cardholders per hour in YOW domestic.

Or they could make you wait behind 2 or 3 non-Nexus people when you come up to the checkpoint after you've already bypassed the main snake line.

I wonder which one your $50 covers the cost of?
