Entry stamp in US passport given when arriving by plane?

I have traveled to many places in the world and love to glance at the passport stamps that I’ve collected in my passport. Strangely however, I have never visited my neighbors – Canada and Mexico.

Luckily, I will have a chance to visit Calgary in May. I’ll be flying in from DFW to YYC on the inbound flight, and flying YYC-SEA on the outbound.

In the past, I’ve heard that Canadian immigration officials will not give an entry stamps in an US Passport when flying in from the States. Is this still the case? If not, what is the likelihood of having it stamped as a souvenir? I definitely want to add Canada to my collection of entry stamps in my passport, so any knowledge in this matter will be greatly appreciated.

Also, is YYC an airport with pre-customs clearance for flights to the US?

Thanks in advance,
