So a French person can demand that a Canadian company must prevent Canadians from finding information about them? Maybe it makes sense that if the Canadian company is serving content to France they have to abide by the French rules, but I don't see any kind of case for blanket removal. Neither does the EU for that matter. Take note that the ruling says basically Google had to make it hard for a French person to access the Canadian version of their engine.

No, and that's specifically what this ruling is about: a French person cannot demand that a Canadian company prevent Canadians from finding information about them. On the other end, a French person can demand that a Canadian company prevent French people from finding information about them (some exceptions might apply though). The Canadian company can also choose not to do business with the EU, in which case it doesn't have to abide by EU rules (some sites decided to do exactly that when GDPR rolled out).
