It's great if the Canadian legal system lets you do this. But this woman is in France, would the French courts be willing to grant such a remedy? No idea; all I can say is that French law and Canadian law are very different.
(Parts of Quebec law are derived from French law historically, but Quebec law has been heavily influenced by English law as well, and French and Quebec law have had 260 years to evolve in separate directions.)
