We don't need to know what fare it maps to to know it earns 50%, based on, again, the two links in my original post. That is, unless you think Air Canada will put plain old pure lies on its website.
My understanding is that the fare code AC sells it under doesn't matter. It's the fare code that LH assigns it to. The tables you link to show earnings by AC fare class for flights operated by AC and by LH fare class for flights operated by LH. It doesn't show how to figure out what LH fare class I'll get on an AC T fare operated by LH.

In a certain sense, it doesn't really matter, since the ticket is purchased and I'll get what I get. But I'm still interested to know if there is a way to figure it out.
