The one and only time I’ve flown out of Pearson internationally to go back home, it was in the top three worst airport experiences I’ve ever had out of hundreds of international and domestic trips, and the other two were understandably due to weather, while this was a gorgeous day with no delays. Security took me almost three hours to get through, and they had a byzantine system where once you got to the end of what you thought was the entire line, you’d turn a corner to find another long one, and that happened six times. It basically devolved into a system where it was just a huge crowd standing around, and as peoples’ flights were about to board they’d get moved to the front. It reminded me of the freakonomics episode where they talk about the LIFO queue: https://freakonomics.com/podcast/what-are-you-waiting-for/ https://freakonomics.com/podcast/what-are-you-waiting-for/
