Yup.

Nope.  NEXUS costs $50, GE costs $100, but NEXUS holders can still join GE 
at no extra charge.

The only practical reason not to join NEXUS first is that you have to 
appear in person at an enrollment center near the US/CA border or a 
Canadian airport.  If you don't live near the border and don't travel 
through those airports, the extra trip would likely cost you way more than 
$50.  Most of the non-airport centers don't have eye scanners so you have 
to visit one that does later to add the iris scan.

Personally, I applied for Nexus at Ft Erie on the way to Toronto, and 
added GE at IAD on the way to some meeting.
