No queue, straight up to desk. Asked how we knew each other. Officer misheard and though I said 'we are brothers' I had in fact said 'We are partners.' As a result he questioned why we had separate surnames if we were brothers. I quickly corrected the situation and he didn't bat an eyelid, and we were through in less than 60 seconds.
Also have to put in a word for USA which I have found to be be fine every time. As a UK based ESTA user the introduction of the automated passport kiosk is brilliant. On the above trip I connected through Seattle and was through immigration using the APK in less than 4 minutes.
I had a really good experience at YYZ recently too, they didnt bat an eyelid at me, just asked where I was staying and wished me a nice holiday in Canada. Was surprised haha
