Oh, and an aside - I really liked the cheese biscuits at Tim Horton.

Glad you didn't arrive when a widebody or two also arrived, as happened to me a time or two

Makes for long lines at Immigration (I am assuming you flew AS as DL dropped the route to SEA).

Also glad you enjoyed Timmie's

There used to be Starbucks at YYJ right next to Timmie's ..... In fact the Starbucks was there for years, until (as you may have noticed) it wasn't. Though they were building an additional one at YVR last time I changed planes there.
