Ticketing said it was not possible due to fare rules, and any upgrade would need to be initiated by Air Canada. If this were a TG Y ticket it would be fine, but not allowed on a partner ticket.

We had to go back in the long queue to get BPs (only one agent working *G check in), and barely made it through in time.

When I checked online it was about 4000$ CAD to change. I guess expected given the original fare that was booked.

At least AC is in J!
Thanks for the very helpful update! Unfortunate that they weren't able to sell you the upgrade, but good to know what to expect.
