The UK/Canada publisher creates an ebook.
The US publisher is different, and does not create an ebook.
That's usually fine with paper books because, even if your local publisher does not offer the version you want (hardback, illustrated, etc.), you can always buy online a different version from another country. Unfortunately, that doesn't work with ebooks, unless you travel to the other country and open a bank account there.
