We propose that the governments of the aforementioned countries finalise agreements (and inevitably, legislation) which make it possible for citizens to move freely with no restrictions regarding work permits or visa controls.
Accompanying the petition is the CFMO’s pledge for free movement, which explains the benefits of undefined borders between the four countries. The CMFO explains to petition signers that freedom of movement will advance cultural growth and historical, economical and political connections that are already shared through commonwealth ties. The freedom of movement idea has been likened to that of the European Union, due to the unique relationship and socio-economic bonds held between the four countries.
Freedom of movement is already a growing global ideology, as proven by the European Union, and now four countries of the commonwealth have the ability to follow suit.
