Nope. They consider Canada to be a domestic flight. We had a good laugh over that one.
This is probably what you're talking about - for convenience, the major Canadian airports have U.S. customs preclearance - calgary, edmonton, halifax, montreal, ottawa, winnipeg, toronto and vancouver. So any flights bound for one of these Canadian airports is considered 'domestic' and can utilize domestic gates at U.S. airports. This is really helpful cause you're less likely to have to switch terminals at a bigger airport in the States.
