I guess it depends on the route whether AC thinks they need to grant a child discount to fill the J/C cabin, and as the YYZ-TLV rarely has empty J/C seats, I guess the answer is no...

Btw, the cheapest available business class fare is $3300++, there´s another (more expensive) Z fare, the $4400++ fare you quoted seems to be D fare. Are you sure you can´t get the Z fare?

I just requested the fare and they quoted me $4400++ with a mix of Z and D fares. How would I go about requesting only a Z fare?
