No more connections for Europeans via YYZ (YUL, etc.) then. No more connections for US Greencard holders via YYZ (YUL, etc.) then.
Hmm, I'm now confused
I believe one needed VISA to transfer in Canada anyway, before this eTA, no?


Just like EVERYONE who transfers in USA needs a VISA, before ESTA was introduced


eTA is meant to shorten and money-grab, and make pre-arrival screening easier, just like ESTA?
