Can book multiple airlines (including Singapore) on one award, will just be with the Star Alliance award chart and no 15% discount. Also there will probably be fuel surcharges on those flights.

Wrong. SQ doesn't charge YQ on UA metal, and if it was YQ it would be closer to ~$300.

Strange.  Taxes should be the same no matter how you book; unless Singapore or Aeroplan are assessing a charge of their own?

Now that's interesting

You mean airlines are the ones that can choose to impose certain taxes or not?  Specific Airline taxes are not mandated by federal regulations?
