This is a unique case. For some reason Canada has allowed US Customs/Immigration to set up shop in Canadian airports. Passengers flying to the US complete customs/immigration before boarding the flight. They land in the US as if they arrived on a domestic flight.

Not sure on that. When I fly from here to Toronto, I stop at customs in
Toronto. When I fly back, I go though US customs in the Toronto airport.
Never been to any other country so I'm not sure.

I still think his name popped up on a list somewhere. I'm sure some
flight seating chart got crossed referenced with a government list
somewhere.

I was wondering about the US Detainee camp thing also.  One other thing
just occured to me - and please correct me if I'm wrong - but is it even
necessary to go through US customs if you're not staying in the country?
I thought you only had to go through customs of the destination country.

  That's what I think. So far we only have one side of the story. Even
if
  this guy is totally not guilty, we still don't know why things were
put
  into motion the way they were. Obviously they were looking for this
guy
  and happened to snag him at the airport. I don't think he was detained
  due to racial profiling. The fact that he was not held in a US prison
  camp for a long period either made me raise an eyebrow.

  Something about the story just seems wrong. Yes, America can treat
  people badly but his story just has everything and everything else all
  at once. I'm taking it with a grain of salt. Canada is rather firm
with
  their citizens rights and the like. They would not just let someone be
  treated and moved around like that.
