All of the international airports with US flights are to an extent. The US insisted for some strange reasons I am not up to speed on that US customs and border clearance happen in the Canadian airport pre-flight. So there are a bunch of US DHS employees in Canadian cities who have some weird extra-legal status and can enforce US laws.
Afaik it was part of a reciprocal deal, where the same thing was to be established in US airports but with Canadian border services agents. Pretty sure the US/its airports just never allowed this development to occur while Canada did
I’m pretty sure one of our airports up here in Canada is controlled by Americans.
