I'm French-Canadian. My native language is French, I spoke French at home growing up and the entirety of my education was in French.
When I've visited Paris, I had people switching to English despite me speaking exclusively in French to them.
It's so weird because I NEVER have this issue in France. I grew up in Ottawa, went to French immersion in public school (therefore far from native speaker level), haven't even lived in Canada for over 15 years now but the last two times I visited France they were just happy to me in French. There was just one time a baker offered to take my order in English and I asked if I could practice my French and he gladly obliged.
I dunno. Are they maybe way more lenient when dealing with Asians?
