This will link to the particular page (but it might still be a good idea to specify page number ranges to your students) You now have the persistent URL for this chapter or page and can place it in a Canvas course of your choice using the Canvas text editor and linking tools in the Content area.  Use CTRL-V or right-click and paste to enter the URL into the Canvas hyperlink window.
