comment How does customs work if my layover is in a third country?
While YYZ does have an International Terminal, flights from the US don't land in International - they are Transborder. (We do customs preclearance in YYZ for flights to the States.) I know there is sterile transfer for some flights, but not all, so check with the airline to be completely sure.

comment Can anyone get the Nexus card, and how?
@LorenPechtel good point, I was being YYZ-centric again. Though it is a 90 minute drive there for me so it was nontrivial.

comment How much does it add to a North America / Australia journey to go “the wrong way”?
this answer would be perfect if it had stopover length info in it (not that I know where you would get that from) since overall journey time is most relevant to me.
