TSA Pre-Check is a US program administered by an agency of the US government. It is therefore not offered at airports in Canada.
There is an expedited security lane for those with a Nexus card, which is functionally similar but not the same program.

If one has global entry, one can use the verified travel security lane and nexus/ global entry US CBP lane. ( for nexus and global entry passengers). The latter is essentially a global entry lane whereby both global entry and
nexus passengers get recognized on the screen by facial recognition.
I do not believe the US passengers on the the TSA precheck program who do not have global entry status and who do not have TSA precheck printed on their boarding pass
have access to the 2 fast track
lanes mentioned above.
i believe if the boarding pass states TSA precheck, one can use the verified security lane for nexus and global entry status passengers- but not the nexus/global entry CBP line if the passenger does not have either status.
