If you think Ford of Canada is giving you money, think again ... you'll have difficulty getting the time of day from them. Ford will only send you back to the dealership - you're beef is with them; the manufacturer has no control or responsibility for what they do in the service department, except as it may relate to the parts and the warranty they provide.
Not to be harsh here, but if you didn't authorize them to take the tranny out, why in heaven's name did you pay the money?! Man you just gave them a gift - you paid for a repair you didn't get (and by your account you didn't authorize) and then you took a problem vehicle off their hands.
I hope you don't think that you are now in a position of strength here ... because your best position was where you were at ... with your money in your wallet and with your car tieing up a bay in their shop, and with a few hours invested in it.
Now you have no leverage. Other than winning in court (12 months from now, earliest) I really don't know how you expect to force them to give you a refund.
