Purchasing in Ecuador would include you finding a friendly travel agent that will issue the ticket for you over the phone or by wire transferring funds. You may have some trouble in that regard.
Wait a minute. The "Canada Excpetion" allows you to purchase your ticket in the country of origin of your first flight or Canada. If you purchase in Canada, you purchase it at the price of the country of origin converted to Canadian dollars, not at the Canadian price. I haven't seen any rule which excepts ex-Jordan tickets from the Canadian exception.
