You're late!
GE is now available to Canadians, effective Dec 15. If you have a NEXUS card, you're already in.

Woo Hoo!
This is a great Christmas gift! The GOES enrolment website confirms this when I log in: As a NEXUS member, you can now use the Global Entry kiosks located at the top 20 major U.S. international airports to enter the U.S. To use the Global Entry kiosks, you must use a valid machine readable passport. Do not use your NEXUS card in the kiosk, but you may wish to carry it with you. There is no additional cost to use Global Entry, and you may use it for the duration of your NEXUS membership. Additional information about Global Entry can be found at http://www.GlobalEntry.gov/. If you do not wish to use Global Entry kiosks, please disregard this message. |

GE has nothing to do with Canada, hence this is not an issue of their being misinformed.

"What is Global Entry?
Global Entry is a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) program " I think is what the OP was trying to say. It obviously has something to do with Canada (or at least Canadians) but not with Government of Canada so there is no reason for our officers in Canada to know much about it (although that would be a nice thing if they did). |

If anyone is interested in knowing, the YYZ office told me that since I have my Nexus card already, I could just walk in, and they would have the US staff in the office take my prints. |
Do the US CBP guys at YYZ have the aforementioned stickers?

That's awesome news! I'll inquire about the GE sticker on the 28th before I leave YYZ-LGA.

I have a Nexus card but I use a UK passport, anyone know if that will cause any problems with Global Entry? I hate that as a Brit I have to go inside to get a visa when I cross the US land border (often 45mins + processing time) but can just walk through at the airport. If I can just walk through and avoid the lines using GE then that is an awesome Christmas present.

It's a sticker CBP places on the inside back cover of your passport so you can show it to the line checker or any other person that needs to know you're going to the GE kiosk.

I just hop to another machine (or at least I did at JFK). However, I landed at LAX from AKL the other day, and there was only one machine, so I see your point. Where does one get this sticker.

Any Global Entry enrollment center (no appointment needed, they just look up your passport to confirm you're enrolled)...and.. pending confirmation per this thread....any NEXUS (air?) office.
