How Canada, Australia, New Zealand, & The UK Are Secretly Forming One Global Superpower: CANZUK

  • This is the country of Cambodia. It is a small to mid-sized country with a population of just over 15 million people, and is located in the southern portion of the Indochina peninsula in Southeast Asia.
    During most of the 20th century, Cambodia was an extremely poor, and relatively weak country in regards to its economy, and military. In fact, in 1998, after 3 consecutives years of economic contraction, the country had a GDP per capita of just $269...making it one of the poorest countries on the planet.
    You see, Cambodia was a poor and somewhat small country, which gave it no sway on the global stage in regards to trade, politics, military and economics.
    So that was why, the country decided to try something different. In 1961, the association of southeast asian nations, or simply, ASEAN...was created by Thailand, the Philippines, and Malaysia.
    Essentially this was a union created to help accelerate economic growth, social progress, and cultural development in the region, while also helping promote regional peace, and to also give these smaller nations a much larger say on the global stage.
    Now it was also formed out of a fear of growing communist regimes in nearby countries such as China, but i will leave that for another video.
    In a sense, this new southeast asian union allowed for small and poor countries, to gain political and economic independence from nearby superpowers. And over the next several decades, other southeast asian nations would join such as Indonesia, Singapore, Brunei, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, and vietnam.
    And all along the way, this new union strengthened the economies of each one of these nations, while also proving to be a somewhat unified political entity, as they showed a unified response to many political threats and wars over the last 60 years.
    So that is why in 1999, Cambodia decided to join this new political union. And since then, Cambodia has seen its economy move from a level of extreme poverty, to that of a developing nation, albeit still a relatively poor and small nation on its own.
    However, the ASEAN union has seen its economic influence grow over the past decade. In fact, this union now has between the 5th and 7th largest amount of economic influence in the entire world...depending on what metric you use.
    And if that is what a collection of somewhat poor southeast asian nations could do...imagine what would happen if 4 very wealthy nations were to form a new union of their own. A union that would act in a similar way... with unified global plans for their militaries, economies, politics, trade, and even citizenship.
    Right now we could be seeing the creation of a global force right before our very eyes.
    In the early 1800’s, New Zealand was a largely unpopulated island with the exception of the Maori Natives.
    Australia had just a few thousand British settlers...40% of which were prisoners.
    And Canada was filled with a few hundred thousand British and French loyalists that simply did not want to live in America after the revolutionary war.
    But then, these 3 young nations would begin to go through a massive change. Within the following decades, they slowly began to become more populated, wealthy, and would eventually become part of the commonwealth of countries under the british empire.
    Now, these 3 nations at the time were not viewed as the most valuable possessions of the british empire.
    India for example, had over 200 million people within its borders, and was one of the largest economies in the world while it was being ruled by the british. This lead to india being named ‘the jewel of the crown’.
    There were also some other nations that were in a more valuable geographical location for the british. Egypt, along with parts of China and indonesia, were viewed as more valuable colonies of the british empire at the time due to their proximity to trade routes, and trade partners.
    But over the next 100 years, the british empire would begin to fall, as virtually every country that was previously under british rule, would soon declare their own independence, and move away from the enforced british culture.
    Except for a few. You see, even after declaring independence from Britain, many of these nations kept their british traditions, and even made their own political association called the commonwealth of nations.

I bet you it will be mostly Brits flocking in large numbers to live in the other three countries - who can blame them, quality of life here in the UK sucks compared to those countries.

    As a 90 year old American
    I have always increasingly considered all these English speaking countries
    to be as close to family as it gets. We jointly saved the world from Hitler, Japan and more recently, Russia. When we visit Canada, or Great Britain,
    I feel like I’m still at home.
    When foreign dangers arise, we always cover each others backs. Please remember, America shares the fact that we are all descendants of our historical mother country,
    The British Empire, and, yes, we are not an official member of the Commonwealth but we stand ready to defend it as if we were, against all who
    comers who would do our mother country serious harm. Bottom line, we need each other to ensure our survival in a hostile world world.

      I would say one thing that the video forgets is that a lot of trade nowadays is not physical (think software and financial services) which doesn't require ships. In that sense, it doesn't matter for a company in England if the company it's working with is in France or Australia. Actually it would be easier with an Australian company as they would share a language, legal setup etc.

    • @ProfDCoy
      @ProfDCoy 3 ปีที่แล้ว +85

      I just want to add this, because I can already see why this idea of CANZUCK has emerged (spoilers: it's because the UK has fucked up with Brexit and now wants to fool its former colonies to become de facto colonies again). So as a colonial subject I want to warn my fellow colonial subjects not to fall for this bullshit and here goes, here's my best attempt.
      Listen guys, I'm an Australian and I totally understand all of the reasons and feelings why we in CANZUK want CANZUK to happen. But all of the good arguments for why we should and why we can are just fairytales. Distance matters, even with the sea. When WW2 happened, the most politically cataclysmic decisions the UK/Aus made was to part ways: to realise that our strategic interests simply aren't the same. This is why Australia chose the United States, for all the mixed benefits that has meant.
      Now, as the video mentions, the UK and Canada are onboard, because they will reap the lion's share of this fairweather friendship: trade and commodities flowing across the Atlantic and to the centre of global banking outside of New York (the City of London). This deal looks GREAT to the UK and even to Canada, which at the very least is still in the same ocean as the UK.
      But if war were ever declared, much like in Futurama when "war were declared", the signature on the dotted line will be Australia's and New Zealand's. And the UK and Canada will find all of the reasons - understandably, but inescapably - to look after their own and do what they did for Australia and NZ in WW2, which is fucking nothing. It wasn't their fault: it was just that distance matters.
      Distance matters. The assumption behind CANZUK is that the global order underpinned by US hegemony will hold. That sea travel will be protected by the richest and most powerful navy in the history of the world. Up to WW2 that was the UK. From WW2 and until now that is the US. It still is the US today, but we have no good reason to believe that the US will maintain its naval dominance over CHina over the long term. We can only dream about CANZUK by forgetting that the US holds that dream together.
      And let me be clear: I'm not a great fan of the US either. But I'm talking here to my fellow Australians and also my NZ brethren and even to some extent to the Canucks: CANZUCK is a deal that primarily benefits the UK, the country whose greatest export is 'financial services' (which is to say 'moving money around, without actually doing anything to earn that money'). CANSUCK is the dream the UK is dreaming now that they're running out of options, and it's not in anyone else's interests but the UK's to dream that dream any longer. There's nothing wrong with keeping close diplomatic ties, but the fact is that the UK has made the CATASTROPHIC mistake of leaving the EU and is now desperately trying to fool other nations to prop up its short-term idiocy by provding the UK with the basic commodities and REAL THINGS that it doesn't itself make anymore. And that idea looks mighty tempting to commodity exporters like Australia and Canada (we who export raw materials but also don't make Real Things half as much as we should) and to economies like NZ that struggle to offer much to the world anyway (not their fault at all, as a small island nation with no great resource wealth). But let's be honest here: this is the UK fucking up and then trying to convince the rest of us that their fuck-up is our opportunity. But if the tables ever turned and we needed them...they'll abandon us just like Churchill abandoned Curtin.
      Don't buy the lies. It's tempting to buy them, because the alternative is that we're a very small fish in a very big and scary pond. But if we don't accept that fact, we're going to be abandoned by the UK the very moment we need them to return the favour - when and if US hegemony crumbles and we become very very alone in the Pacific. We have to face facts: distance matters, and it's only the long historical luck of Britannia (and then America) owning the seas that makes this madness seem reasonable.

      I feel like more trade coming out of places like Brisbane would be really beneficial to our economy, not even mentioning how it would help us move away from Chinese influence. I mean 66% of all our trade goes to China, we can’t rely on them so much, so this deal would be really beneficial for both trade opportunities and opportunities to seperate ourselves from China. The added benefit of easier travel and immigration also opens up many doors for jobs and education.

      1. country here has different economic need. UK’s main trade partner is EU, NZ is Australia, Australia is japan, Canada is America.
      2. competition: Canada and Australia are both natural resource exporter, Australia and UK both export education. Canada won’t be moving their manufacturing cuz Mexico labour is so much cheaper, just like South East Asian countries and China to Australia
      3. Political opinions: Australians are too busy fighting against China, British are tied up in Brexit and sure, that definitely proves UK will stay in an organization. Canadians are too liberal to lower themselves to the level of the other two power, and NZ probably worry getting “annexed” by their neighbour.

    As a Swede, the cultural affinity among the Scandinavian countries is a tell tale example of something like what CANZUK would be. Even before the EU, we had no borders and in practise a common labourmarket.
    Scandinavian languages are actually more of dialects. Exept for Finnish, but very many also know Swedish, as it was the same kingdom for centuries.
    And it has always been a very rewarding social thing, feeling Scandinavian, actually improving the quality of everyday life. I think these benefits are enough to warrant CANZUK.
    Then there is of course the obvious defence gains, where you in practise most of the time anyway line up - the Ukraine war being a prime example.
    Don't get caught on the trade benefits. Those are very hard to quantify in advance. Yet I would say the EU has over time proven itself.
    In conclusion I would say: Go for it! Given the imense popular support, it really should be a no-brainer!

    I’m not European, but I can tell you as a Singaporean. Cohesion is a tool that any country would want. My belief is that if these powers get together, I think it would be somewhere around 3rd or 4th on the board overall. The cohesion will get anything through faster and there won’t be as many disputes among countries.

    this seems like a very interesting idea
    tighten the connection between the commonwealth countries again, but now on more equal terms.
    All of these countries are already going very strong economically (their only limit really being the physical size of their population), so together they would *really* be strong
    AND on top of all of that, we get a bonus of decreasing China's influence in the world.
    I believe the effects of this union could be enormous, and for the better
    UK's public support for it is the lowest (68%) but with brexit, i can very well see this increasing - UK suffered from brexit, and most englishmen realized this, and because re-joining the EU is not rly an option, CANZUK could be an alternative worth considering.

      Honestly I keep thinking because we will always have our cheap stuff made in Asian area, we should pick a place like Indonesia or Thailand, and get them to make all our cheap stuff, and that will create a second economic force in Asia that will throw China for a spin. India for a non Asian idea could also be the people. But either way destabilise the Chinese power structure by creating a competition for the worlds money.
