The rise of the CANZUK concept coincides with recent global events such as Brexit and the protectionist Buy America policy.

CANZUK is a novel idea based on the creation of a new free trading bloc between the countries of Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. The idea for CANZUK is not entirely new, but it has taken on a new dynamism given recent world events involving these four countries.
