and more importantly  , UK and Canada  have a  relatively interference-free  path  for bilateral trade  ( similar  to Australia and NZ )


 now Australia  COULD send goods across the Pacific to the Canadian  West Coast  but the majority of the Canadian  population  is closer to the East Coast


 would be like importing  in Perth or Port Hedland  and selling your stuff in Sydney/Melbourne  ( given the seasonal snow  , across OZ might be more reliable )


 look at the world currently   there are extra hazards navigating the Suez Canal  , possibly increased costs using the Panama Canal


 it just doesn't make  a logistical sense   unless those exports are unavailable elsewhere   at a huge premium
