Um, no. I'm talking like I just got off the Canada Line and am going in landside to airside as much of an originating passenger as I've ever been.
Years out of YYZ conditioned me that there would be a nexus line and if not at the least a priority line for ac*se and *e. four times out of transborder YVR since moving here and I've yet to breeze through like at Pearson.
Talked to one of the catsa guards, she says it's entirely up to them and optional.
Also, Only one of the nexus machines was working today. A general fail this PM!
