i wonder if Canada really fits into Aukus:
if they feel the same sense of [urgency] that propels the cooperation of the other partners...?

I wonder if Canada can afford to fit into AUKUS?

Re: AUKUS (in general)
they can of course, they're a rich and advanced nation.
but do they feel any sense of urgency about a need to afford AUKUS entry?
they a remote land power comfortably nestled in the embrace of the regional hegemon, they don't have to do anything except enable NORAD activity.
for different reasons, the UK, Australia and Japan have urgent maritime problems that they need active collaboration via Aukus to address.

Not sure exactly what this covers but this could be pretty important for strapped UK defense spending.
Seeing as it also covers missiles, we may see a lot more tomahawks or even some of the expensive anti ballistic missiles equipping future escorts, with CAMM in support. Bit of a blow to pan European development perhaps.
Let's hope the savings can be reinvested into more volume.
