Do (separate) multi-cities international flights obey the luggage restriction from the international leg?
score:2
So, I called Air Canada and they said we are wrong.
The 2 baggage policy from my International Flight would only apply if I was travelling with connections. As I'm stopping over some cities, those will all be domestic flights, applying the domestic flight rules.

Several years ago, IATA passed "Resolution 302" which covers baggage fees for trips like this.
Basically, this resolution states :
1) If the published baggage provisions among all participating carriers are the same; these provisions will apply.
2) Where the one or more published baggage provisions differ between participating carriers, apply any common provisions and where provisions differ the published baggage provisions of the Most Significant Carrier (MSC). (In case of code share flights this will be the Operating Carrier, unless that carrier publishes a rule stipulating that it will be the Marketing Carrier).
3) If the MSC does not publish baggage provisions for the journey concerned apply the published baggage provisions of the carrier accepting the baggage at check-in.
4) If the carrier accepting the baggage at check-in does not publish baggage provisions for the interline journey concerned apply the published baggage provisions of each operating airline sector-by-sector.
Without going into too much detail, the "Most Significant Carrier (MSC)" is the one that forms the longest part of your journey. (That isn't always correct, but without going into confusing details about IATA regions, it's generally correct).
So in your case, the baggage allowance from Toronto to Rio will be the one that applies, however if there are any fees payable then you will pay them at the start of your journey, not in Toronto.
