When I checked, it would seem that it is 90,000 from either ICN or NRT to JFK or ORD, for example, but then they add the flight to YUL as extra. I'm used to Aeroplan, and it wouldn't cost me extra with Aeroplan. Am I misunderstanding Lifemiles

or is there a problem with they website?

click on all three of your flights to get the final number.
in this case, it would be 108K + miles for the F/C/C cabin combination, or 103K for the F/C/Y combination.
Better use of miles is to either find a one hop route (F then C) , or terminate your ticket somewhere else near YUL, either YYZ NYC or wherebouts.
see sample below.
