Last time I arrived in Canada I did not have to speak to a single person once I got off the plane until I was in a taxi.  Assuming you qualify, this is something to ease your travel experience and time in the airport.  Makes my life easier so I want to share it with you.

There is a Nexus only-entry point to/from Niagara at the Whirlpool 
bridge (between Rainbow and Lewiston/Queenston).  Its a little off the 
beaten path compared to the other bridges, but its worth it during peak 
travel times.
