As for those transferring from the C gates (domestic) to international (D gates), they would have to re-clear security to enter.

Those who are already in the D gates (eg. they change their mind and don't want to fly) and want to leave the secure area must report to Canada Immigration and Customs on the arrivals level.
You can go from domestic to international, but not the other way. And you can't leave international without going through immigration.

What you say would need to happen sounds a lot like how it already works
