Apart from Canada, all keep the Union flag and we join our friends to keep Britain alive.

So less Brexit and more CANZUK, at least the countries value us.

I've seen all the other 3 accept. Just waiting on the UK to agree to form a new Super Power globally by accepting. Figures make us the 3rd global power, but more growth will make us top dogs again. China and the USA are included in this, they are much bigger BUT Canzak is our effort to draw it back and even lead in the years to come.

Is there actually any official will to get this done or is it all pie in the sky? Freedom of movement being the obvious one. All the talk of an Australian points style immigration system for example was very deliberately used as Australia has in recent history had a very strict immigration policy. Why are they going to suddenly go open door when they’re already negotiating a FTA that already looks weighted in their benefit and as far as anyone knows doesn’t include free movement of people. We quite clearly need their young people to fill voids in the job market created by Brexit such as in the hospitality sector, I don’t think they have the same issues.

Neeeeever going to happen. We are way down the list of trade priorities for these countries. I’d love it, but it is just an idea by weirdos and white nationalists online not a serious proposal.

From the Canadian side it seems pretty much a non-issue, they are more concerned with not doing anything to upset CETA. Although their farmers have certainly taken note that Australian farmers are getting tariff and quota free access to the UK market.

Freedom of movement with Australia and Canada would be great but I can't see it happening.

As someone who would very much like to move to Canada later in life I really hope it happens. Just can’t see it as a serious possibility.

I thought the big issue a lot of people had with the EU was freedom of movement and no control of the borders?

I had the chance to move to Australia a few years back and didn't. Regret that decision but didn't really have a choice. As an only child with elderly parents who need caring for you can't really bugger off to the other side of the planet.

Mate who did make the move says his quality of life has improved massively.

Spent a year in Canada a few years back and would happily move back over there.

Me and the Missus came back from travelling around South Asia in 2015 and as we were 35 we were too old for an Oz working visa but could just scrape one for Canada (up until our 36th birthday) but just didn’t have the funds to get out there and have enough to tide us over until we got settled and got a job etc.

Not a massive regret but I do sometimes wonder whether our lives would be massively different now.

In fact the massive Canada Lonely Planet book is still sat on the shelf around my Old Mans.

what were you thinking?!
I've been twice, never left the airport! Hopefully next time I might make it as far as the taxi rank.
