Don't bother yourself with multiple airlines if you don't have to. In Canada, book a ticket to Malaysia via Cathay Pacific, let's say, and use your Malaysian passport information.

When you check in, show the airline your Malaysian passport.

When you go through security to enter your terminal, show your Malaysian passport and boarding pass. Canada doesn't do exit stamps or checks on your status.

Thanks, I was thinking about that. But then all these "rumors" about AC asking to see your proof of Canada residency (e.g. PR card, visa, passport) at check-in departure from Canada and AC sending API data (include passport) to country of destination make me unsure about your method above.

It seems using a proxy third country is the safest bet.
