Incorrect. There is passport control. You are entering the EU in MXP. Same as when you are transfering from outside US to a US flight. The difference is that you do not get custom control as, in Europe, baggage tags have green background if they were checked in inside the EU, allowing the custom agent in LCA to know you are not coming from the EU, since your tags from YYZ will be on purely white background.
