US brings zero (zilch, nada) tier miles.
Domestic Air Canada brings a minimum of 125 miles in eligible booking classes. :-) But that is a far way from SAN.
At SAN, I would think that UA (500 miles min, except O, I, X, R, N, P) offers the shortest solution.

Aka no BP checks/validation on the LH codeshared Deutsche Bahn operated train to Frankfurt, accruing full mileage without being half a world away. Just make sure to OLCI on time!
Easy 250 miles in Q class to A3.

It's the operating airline (the metal) that counts, not the marketing carrier.
Just like trying to credit an SQ Codeshare on SilkAir - A3 won't credit the miles as transport wasn't on an A3 partner or StarAlliance Airline.

The only place you can't credit the miles to is M&M, as per the miles box with the x above. Crediting to any other *A FFP will earn miles as per the earnings chart! You will be fine booking this!
