Both the first and third leg will be codeshare. I doubt Finnair has direct HKG-BKK flights anyways.
Just a note to OP - the YEG-YVR FLT is an AA FLT operated by WS, so cannot be redeemed. The calculation is only "theoretical." Also, stopovers can be used as transits in an award, but not vice versa.
