One problem with connecting flights is the consequence when you miss your connection. There are only two daily flights between YKF and ORD. If you fly SFO -> ORD -> YKF and the first leg is delayed enough to miss the second leg then you face a lengthy layover at ORD, possibly overnight. OTOH if you fly SFO -> ORD -> YYZ and the first leg is delayed then you can easily find other flights back to YYZ every hour or so.
If I had these flight options for a visit to SFO they'd be in this order:
1. YKF -> SFO
2. YYZ -> SFO
3. YYZ -> ORD -> SFO
4. YKF -> ORD -> SFO (and a distant fourth at that)
