French-Canada demand

Just a quirk i noticed playing the beginners worlds - there doesnt seem to be realistic demand from 3 francophone-populated airports to France (Montreal, Quebec, and Ottawa). In real life, Montreal supports the same number daily to CDG as Toronto (3 flights a day on widebodies), but in game demand for toronto is like 800pax vs 200pax for montreal. Montreal also supports flights to 6 other french cities daily IRL. For the other two airports, IRL they support dailies to CDG (Ottawa upgraded to A350 daily in 2024), but in AWS both are less than 90pax demand.

I think the game seems to boost demand between country pairs with strong pax ties (for example the Germany-Turkey boost), just wondering if theres any reason it doesnt apply to French Canada, or is that too hard to do without inadvertently boosting France-Calgary/Edmonton/Vancouver demand. Canada seems to get this boost with UK but not with France.
