But for any transit from International or US to a Canadian or a US destination, you must go landside.
Ouch. I originally had a backup plan of taking the next flight back(couldn't include in original itinerary due to several minutes below MCT in PHL). Just realized the flights are constantly delayed, now I'm inclined to not risk it since I'm connecting on an international flight.

Thank you all again for your insights!
