Totally agree, Nexus works pretty much everywhere and almost guarantees you TSA Pre. In YYZ, the Nexus and Visa Privilege lines dump you into the same place. At my base (YVR), they even have effectively the same protocol as TSA-P
most of the time.
Having said that the Nexus lane is not always open first thing in the morning here or during the mid day doldrums. And there are shocking number of families with kids using the Nexus lane now. That's okay, but they take forever to actually clear the Immigration agents. Whine, whine, snivel, snivel.
