I was looking at some good YYZ - CDG routings that showed up on ITA / Google but would not book on the AA site which got me close to my goal.
I think you've found the best. YYZ>ORD>CDG>ORD>YYZ, out 10/8, 3 hour turn at CDG and back 10/9 goes books with AA for $604 CAD/$458 USD and 9,306 EQM at 4.92 cpm. Can stay a day or two in CDG if desired.

[edit] That's with 500 mile min, if you have no status the total is 9,176 EQM.
