My Delta boarding pass for a YYZ-SLC flight shows a TSA Pre✓ logo. Is this a Delta IT mistake or are there actually reciprocal benefits at Canadian airports?

Delete, wrong thread.

There are not reciprocal benefits unless you have NEXUS or Global Entry.
The only reason I can think why your BP says PreCheck is that it's accessing a US-based system.

You must have your NEXUS or GE card in hand to use these lanes.

Why do you want it gone? I've had "secondary screeners" (such as from certain airports where everyone goes through at least a cursory gate check prior to a flight to USA) make note of the TSA Pre mark.

This. I've been let into the Global Entry lane without my card before, for security screening leaving Canada, and I think it was because of the TSA Pre (either that or flying F).

I do have Global Entry but didn't have the card at the time. The security lane is separate for Global Entry/NEXUS and I believe is similar to TSA Pre - you go through a metal detector, but I still had to take my laptop out.

All US airline BP have it on them if you qualify. Just easier to program system for one setup than multiple.

Yes, you can you the trusted travelers lane for security if you have your GE/NEXUS card present. Having Precheck or not on the BP doesnt matter. Unlike the US, being a member is sufficient to get access to the lane.

Yup. Not hard, but merely adds a complication which doesn't meed fixing.

No, there are expedited security screening lanes that are separate from expedited US immigration/customs. If you pass through a CATSA Trusted Traveller lane (for which, as noted above, you'll need a physical Global Entry or NEXUS card) you can keep your shoes, belts and light jacket on and liquids in bags, though you have to remove laptops.

Then separately (though it usually immediately follows/precedes security screening depending on the airport layout) you can use the Global Entry machines for expedited entry, for which of course you don't need the card at all.

(There's an occasional complaint about how at some airports in Canada, depending on layout, the lane minders attempt to bar access to the Global Entry machines because they claim you need a physical card, which is of course not true, especially given the fact that Global Entry members who aren't US citizens/permanent residents or Mexican citizens can't even get them in the first place. But this is a bit of a sidenote to your question.)

My AA flight from Paris CDG to ORD had the PreCheck designation on it. It was just standard fare. At that point I didn't even have Global Entry because I was doing my interview upon arrival at ORD, so it meant nothing.

This. You do not need your GE card when traveling by air, only by land according to US CBP. I had this problem in Canada and I finally was allowed to go through the NEXUS lanes in Toronto after a brief (civil) argument with the Canadian version of TSA. I never carry my GE card with me as all the information is in my passport already (i.e. GE). The problem is they don't have passport/boarding pass scanners at the beginning of security for some reason, at least in Toronto. So if you don't have a physical GE card to show, they can't validate your claim to be GE/NEXUS. Super annoying.
