Why are some non-NEXUS travellers sent through the NEXUS line at Pearson?

Accepted answer
The airport web site suggests you may be some other sort of priority traveler:
A priority lane will be available for Nexus cardholders and airline guests with priority designations.
NEXUS cardholders and airline guests with priority access may enter the U.S. Customs hall directly at any time by showing their boarding pass and/or valid Nexus card and U.S. Customs card.
This may be because you have a membership with the airline that provides priority access to boarding and other services, because you're flying first class, you are disabled, or whatever other reason the airline might designate you as a "priority" traveler. If any reason applies to you, the word "priority" appears on your boarding pass.

Is it possible your connecting flight's boarding time was near? I've been sent to priority customs/passport/security lines when I had a tight connection - both airlines and airports have strong motivations to ensure everyone boards on time because missing passengers can cause very costly delays.
