For some reason, I thought that the Canadians have a stricter consumer protections than the US.

I'd appreciate any insight that you all might have! Thanks!
A CDG-AMS ticket would be either an AF or KLM fare. DL can't sell a DL fare wholly in the EU. However they can sell their partners fares on their behalf.

If the fare from Canada is actually a DL fare then yes you should be able. However if it's a KLM or AF fare then the respective airlines policies apply.
