US Pre-clearence

If you're flying from Vancouver to the US, you'll already go through US immigration at Vancouver Airport before your flight. This also applies if you are connecting to a flight to the US in Vancouver - you will go through US immigration during your transfer.

Once you arrive in the US from Vancouver, you won't go through immigration again, saving you hours of time.
