It also depends on what flight you are taking. Legally the airline is supposed to match the boarding card, to the face and to the passport on an International flight. For domestic they accept drivers license too. For the US it is the Nexus I have been told and `I do not know about that. The Gate check is nothing to do with the border service or the customs.

If you are outside of your home country, you should always carry your passport with you. Not every law enforcement agency will have access to confirm your identity using your Nexus card. In and of itself, a Nexus card is not a general purpose form of identification like your passport or say your driver's license.

Why do the CATSA need to put everything into the basket they have for screening? Surely they can screen anything bigger too if they want? Something like a violin etc? Can't they pass it thru the x ray?

Hello,
I'm checking about connection times needed at YYZ. Flying from US to YYZ to Europe, with a 1:39 connection time in YYZ, is that enough? I've been reading about baggage issues (will check in bags) and lines, and wanted to know if that is enough time (people and bags!) to get through to the next flight with no issues for a US citizen.
I haven't read anything about issues since January so wanted to check. This would be for travel in June. Thank you

Which airline(s)/terminal? That can make a difference, but make sure you *carefully* follow the posted signs for outbound international connections - do not enter arrivals and make absolutely certain the agents at your origin city check your bags, if any, through to your final destination.
Air Canada - DFW to YYZ to FRA all on Air Canada planes.
other option is thru YUL but that has 4-5 hr layover so not worried about time on that one.

The YYZ connection should be fine - the signs will lead you to the transfer area where there is a cursory passport and boarding pass check before entering the international departures concourse.
