The current chaos in Afghanistan offers one more good argument for CANZUK—a formal coalition of Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. Britain, Australia, and other nations were trapped by America’s sudden withdrawal. America no longer looks like a reliable ally. Had CANZUK existed, it might have been able to take charge.
CANZUK should also appeal to Britain as a way to stand strong in trade competition with the EU. For Canadians, it elevates them beyond just being America’s eternal kid brother. For New Zealand, the added partners prevent being overmatched by Australia. For Australia, it is protection against China.
It is suddenly looking possible that Erin O’Toole may become Canadian prime minister. If so, CANZUK is an official part of his party’s policy.
