I'll believe it when I see it.
I for one, dislike having US pre-clearance. I have no idea why airports spend big bucks housing them. It segments airports like the YOW, YUL for example where you no longer have facilities, you have to pay to house US immigration/border officers and their facilities which are costly, for virtually no benefit. As a NEXUS card holder, I try to avoid if possible flying through airports in Canada that have US pre-clearance.
It is usually easier and faster clearing US immigration in the USA not Canada. I wish all Canadian airports got rid of US pre-clearance.
Finally, any rumors on a Domestic YUL lounge or Priority Pass lounge opening there?
