The swing gates at YYC, gates 70 to 73, are hilarious at times. I'm sitting at the lounge overlooking the walkway for 71/72/73 waiting for our flight to Vegas which departs from 72. A Westjet flight just came into 73 and apparently a bunch of the passengers are connecting onto that Vegas flight and they have to walk past gate 72 in the ramp walkway. Some of the passengers saw the signs indicating their Vegas flight so instead of going to the exit of the walkway and through US Customs they just started going down the ramp to 72 although the doors down the gangway were still closed. They came back up to the main walkway and just started hanging out outside of 72. Finally a gate agent and a CBSA officer came over to them to explain what they had to do. It looks like one guy got really annoyed with the whole process and started yelling at them and pointing at his boarding pass and gate 72. He obviously didn't realize he had to disembark into the C concourse and clear customs and go to the US version of gate 72.
