Re: CANZUK
It is simpler than that:
There is value in cooperation and collaboration, it has been the foundation of every geopolitical alliance the world has ever seen.
But it is always a trade off between your political weight, and the congruence of your aims with the relative weight of those you seek to influence.
How much are you willing to compromise to achieve a given aim? How much is that aim worth, to you?
Every geopolitical alliance reaches a point where 'their' fundamental aims may have a price that you are no longer willing to pay.
The EU being a case in point. Canzuk, from this point of view, is nothing more than an attempt to find common aims at a lower price.
Its great, so long as it doesn't reach beyond the calculation of that same metric.
