Edit: Did you look at any options for FRA on Eurowings? They will be operating over the winter into YYC.

After years of going to Europe I have prioritized getting there, because they have so many more connections to get to your final vs the few daily overseas flights you can transfer to in Canada.
Those are my thoughts too. Pearson is a crap show at the best of times. Only appealing thing about it was the arrival time into the final destination. We did KLM for the same trip a month ago and it worked great. Only thing this time around is they are only showing a transfer to Transavia (KLM's LCC, like Swoop was) rather than to mainline KLM and I'm not 100% certain that can be done without claiming bags and rechecking in in AMS.

I looked are Eurowings with a transfer to LH but it's a 9.5 hour layover in Frankfurt.

I'd be all over WestJet if they offered any connection opportunities but the only one is through CDG and it's less than 90 minutes.

It's looking more like KLM.
