This is the original Patent app---the application must be filed in every country/jurisdiction you want protection...

at that point, you are subject to individual examination by each jurisdiction applied to...

there are differences in this case between the Canucks and the USPTO...

the original application, filed in both countries, attempted to patent both a system and a process for processing plastics---this is treated as two inventions in the US, hence the reason a divisional application was spun off in the US, resulting in two separate apps in the US--one for a system and one for a process---the Canadians didn't make this distinction..

the Canadians accepted the arguments/amended claims made by the company in March, 2018---and issued a Canadian patent on 12/04/2018

the US again rejected the arguments/claims in both US apps in May and June 2018---and the ball is bouncing between the examiner and the company in the US for both these US applications...
