I'm only interested in the SkyMiles since it won't expire. So I'm assuming I'll earn 5 miles per dollar spent (5 x $330?) since that is the lowest level?

Also, I see Canadian pricing if the departure airport is from a Canadian city. Will I earn miles based on the equivalent in USD?
You earn based on USD equivalent . However you only earn based on the fare and any surcharges, taxes/fees are excluded. Yes BE still earns.
