The main issue is, I think, that your XML parser is not configured
to be namespace aware. Without namespaces you end up with an
'svg' element that is not in the SVG namespace and consequently
when we import your DOM for the canvas it ends up not being an
SVGSVGElement - which means that it can't be displayed in the canvas.
