Download a bed file for the canonical transcripts using UCSC Table Browser:
- track: UCSC Genes
- table: knownCanonical
- output format: select fields from primary and related tables
- press get output
- select fields from hg19.knownCanonical: chrom, chromStart, chromEnd,
- transcript select fields from hg19.kgXref: geneSymbol
- press get output
The file UCSC_canonical.bed looks like that:
#hg19.knownCanonical.chrom hg19.knownCanonical.chromStart hg19.knownCanonical.chromEnd hg19.knownCanonical.transcript hg19.kgXref.geneSymbol

Modify the file to separate the transcript name of the rest of information:
awk '{split ($4,a,"_"); {print $1"\t"$2"\t"$3"\t"a[1]"\t"a[3]"\t"$6}}' UCSC_exons.bed > UCSC_exons_modif.bed
The file UCSC_exons_modif.bed:

Join the sorted files based on the transcript identificator:
join -1 4 -2 4 <(sort -k4 UCSC_exons_modif.bed ) <(sort -k4 UCSC_canonical.bed) | awk '{print $2"\t"$3"\t"$4"\t"$10"\t"$5"\t"$6}' | bedtools sort -i "-" > UCSC_exons_modif_canonical.bed
The final file contains exons of the canonical transcripts:
