If you start foreign, stop in USA (requires entry-no transfer) go to third country, and then come back? Seems kinda legit to me. Agree NO USA-CA-USA on single booking
The cabotage question here is about (dis)allowing a foreign carrier to transport domestic passengers/goods.
If a passenger's trip starts/ends in two different countries, then there can't be any question of cabotage.
