No numbers to back it up, but YXE-CUN is probably a much larger market than YQM-CMN. Coupled with the fact that it's a much shorter route, means one isn't comparable to the other.

CA993/4 YYZ-PEK 2x weekly
CA997/8 YVR-PEK 1x weekly
Looks like there will be no immediate or future plan to resume YUL-PEK.

Doesn't surprise me, with only 4x weekly flights. YUL will regain PEK only if:
a. AC decides to give it a go, which is highly unlikely.
b. CA regains all of its pre-COVID rights to Canada.
Even if b happens, CA might still decide to only use them on more YVR and YYZ.
With Canada-US relations in the gutter, it would have been nice to get closer to China, and at the very least, resume pre-COVID bilateral rights. Sadly, the
Canada-China relation isn't getting any better. This doesn't help matters.
