The reason that I'm not a Nexus card-holder is because I don't live near the Northern border, and my trips to Canada are sporadic - but I've potentially got a few coming up in the next few months and was wondering if the ABTC benefits would apply.
I have had zero luck using my HK issued ABTC in both Vancouver and Calgary. The agents there have no idea what I am talking about and am turned back to the normal lines.

However no problems in JFK, Newark and Puerto Rico.
