[10] CANZUK International's proposals focuses specifically on three key areas: freedom of movement, free trade and foreign policy co-operation,[11] with interest in complimentary objectives such as constitutional affairs and educational initiatives.

[11] Although CANZUK International's main objective is freedom of movement between Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom, the organisation has also prioritised increased visas between the countries.

Emily Gilbert, an associate professor of Canadian Studies and Geography at the University of Toronto stated: "I think it's an intriguing proposal, but I think chances are it will be some years in the making if it's ever to be realized", while Jeffrey Reitz from the University of Toronto's Munk School of Global Affairs stated: "it's unclear why Canada would pursue a proposal with New Zealand, Australia and U.K. instead of the U.S. and Mexico, countries that are already part of a free trade agreement.

Research conducted has varied in subject, including general elections,[35] the cost of living in differing cities throughout the four Commonwealth countries,[36] and the 2016 referendum regarding the UK's membership of the European Union.
