Meeting passengers arriving on KLM at YYZ
I'm hoping to meet someone at YYZ coming off KLM, which I understand uses terminal 3. Is there one common point where all passengers go from customs to public space, or are there multiple possible places they could come out of customs? For example, I'm thinking of ICN where there is one common customs area, but 4 (or 5?) doors that passengers could come out of. There are signs that display the door that passengers will likely come out of, based on the assigned baggage claim.
I've tried to find pictures or other descriptions, but have had no luck.

My experience is that all International arrivals exit through the same door. However I'm not able to give you a definitive answer. Since there is free wifi at YYZ, would your friends not be able to contact you on arrival in case they are at another exit door?

IIRC international arrival exits through one exit at the intl arrival end of the terminal.
You can't miss the waiting for intl arrival crowd.

Thanks. Fortunately, they're terminating at YYZ, so that will be a non-factor for this event.

Yes it’s impossible to miss people.
Or so I thought, admittedly it’s easier to miss someone at T1 but it happens, and they knew I was coming! It can be teeming with people especially at T3.
Go to staples and get a huge piece of a brightly coloured card and write their name on it is my suggestion

All international flights pop through the same doors at T3 (domestic comes in to another area) and if you position yourself right in front (there's a physical barrier, but they would be able to see you) you shouldn't miss them.

Bright colour paper with a name on it would be a good idea as it would be very hard to get to the front of the barrier
