1. Can I register my Aeroplan number with them, or do I need to submit thru AC for my points?

2. can I use my e-upgrades to move from J to A?

Sorry for the dumb arse questions, my AC travel is primarily domestic so I have little experience with this.
1. Yes

2. No, Eupgrades are for Air Canada flights only, and afkaik they have to be on Air Canada (+rouge/express/jazz) operated flights.
You may be able to use your Aeroplan miles to do a Star Alliance reward upgrade depending on availability and your actual booking class.
