Need help transiting Frankfurt (FRA) connecting from Canada to Africa.

Hello, In May I'm flying from Canada to Tunisia.
I will fly from Canada to Frankfurt (direct) on Condor,
and then I will take a second flight with a different airline,
from Frankfurt to Tunis.
The flights were not booked at the same time.
I need help to understand the process in Frankfurt so that I am sure I have enough time.
I'm Canadian, on Canadian passport. With a second ticket to fly from Frankfurt to Tunis the same day that I arrive in Frankfurt
1. Do I go through German Customs / Immigration before I claim my luggage?

I actually haven't booked the Tunisian Air flight yet, as I'm waiting to see if an 8:10 arrival and a 12:20 departure time on the Tunisian A. flight which I'm considering, would allow sufficient time.

I'm VERY slow in walking. Will need 3 times the average time.

Is there really sufficient time to deplane, find luggage, go through customs, get to 2nd airline, check in, go through security, get to gate of 2nd airline ?

Thanks for your help.
