This might be a way to get around the problem with the Emirates website and Canadian credit cards.
I had a booking with Expedia (UK) for earlier this year. I've just looked at the confirmation and also a schedule change email but neither show an EK ticket number. There may have been one but I can't see it on these messages.
There was a PNR number on the first email from Expedia that allowed me to access the booking on EK's website and miles were awarded with no issues.
