Does this mean that if I ever need to travel the day after the interview, to Mexico for the wedding of my best friend, I could use my French passport while my Canadian one is getting ready for my Visa ?

assuming the french don't need some sort of special visa for Mexico, yes. 

In theory you should enter Canada on your Canadian passport. But I don't know how strict they are on this.

Yes that's right, they want people to use their Canadian passport, a friend of mine reminded me that too. Especially because when you come back to Canada this is required...

You could enter on the French passport, but it is preferable.  You could also ask for the visa to be placed in your French passport since you have travel planned.
