Well, I've asked Air Canada this question and received two different responses, so help from anyone would be appreciated.
I have a 1 hour 10 minute connection in Toronto from Winnipeg. From my understanding, this is the minimum connection time. One agent said that I have to collect my checked baggage and then go through US Customs, re-checking my baggage on the other side. Another agent said that when I check my baggage in Winnipeg, I do not have to collect it as it will automatically go through US Customs in Toronto.
Which one is it?
BTW, both agents told me, and it seems logical, that I will have to collect my baggage in Toronto on the way home for Canada Customs.
