Mods, please move to a more appropriate space is need be.
yes, i used to do this often from YVR (i lived ~1 hr from there). even flying from YVR to US itineraries. I have nexus so that helps. the US land border agents sometimes look at you funny but i always say it was much cheaper and quicker (and it was particularly for intl flights).
