Looks like it's now a user-generated QR code from Amex for priority access - got the email this am. Not sure if this will result in more people in the priority security line ? I usually use the priority security and then go through to Nexus... but it could theoretically increase the number of people using the priority security line.

Just went through in T1. I was in the NEXUS line but the normal (not priority) looked like a bit of a mess and quite stretched (around 11:30am EST). I don't understand the point behind searching/testing NEXUS member laptops/equipment yet YYZ security just dumps 'priority' passengers into the supposed NEXUS line which skips the inspector...

edit: unless you were transborder? I’m thinking of the domestic/intl gates.
