Based on table 16 the size of the overcurrent device determines the bonding conductor size. Shouldn't distance also be factored in. For example, if I had a light post situated several hundred meters from the panel, the circuit only requires a 15A breaker but 6 gauge wire is used for voltage drop purposes, am I still ok to use 14 gauge for the bond.

Unlike the NEC in the USA, the CEC does not require the bonding conductor to be "upsized" when the circuit conductor size is increased for voltage drop. 10-814
However, there is nothing there to prevent an individual designer, or installer, from increasing the bonding conductor size.
