"RAAF Butterworth was host to a Sabre squadron equipped with the Australian built Canadair version"

Actually two different aircraft. The Australians did their own re-design, using the RR Avon, while the Canadians used the Orenda. Performance was close as you'd expect, but these were different re-designs by different teams at different times.
