"Regardless of the destination, Davidson recommends travellers give themselves lots of time to navigate the airport: three hours before departure for international flights or two hours for domestic flights. Passengers should check restrictions for carry-on baggage ahead of time, says Matthew Blanche, terminal manager for the Canadian Air Transport Security Authority. When in doubt, he says, put it in a checked bag."
"Restrictions include: Liquids, gels and aerosols including things like peanut butter must be under 100 milliliters and all containers together must fit in a one-litre bag. Granular material like the pellet filling of a stuffed animal must be under 350 milliliters (about the volume of a soda can). Duty-free purchases must go in a designated duty-free bag. Additionally, each airline has unique restrictions on the size, weight and number of bags."
"For those arriving in Canada, border services officer Tamara Lopez encourages travellers to have their passport, documents and receipts in hand when approaching customs. She also advises: Use the ArriveCAN app to make customs and immigration declarations ahead of arrival. Wait to wrap gifts, because a border officer may unwrap them. Don't cross international borders with cannabis. Check personal exemptions on purchases made outside of Canada."
Toronto Pearson expects about 3.2 million travellers between Dec. 17 and Jan. 5, with peak days up to 171,000 passengers.

Granular materials must be under 350 milliliters. Duty-free purchases must remain in designated duty-free bags. Airlines set their own size, weight and quantity limits. Arrivals to Canada should prepare passports, documents and receipts, use ArriveCAN, and follow customs import rules.
