Would it have been more cost effective to get the British edition from a Canadian source?

The problem with the book I am looking for is it is British, cannot survive translation into American [1] and is not imported into Canada for some reason.

1: It's a cook book. Apparently the standard for conversions from weight-based recipes as used in the UK to volume-based as used in the US is of the "nobody really cooks; they're buying the name on the spine, not the recipes themselves" level.
