WP:N, WP:V, WP:NOR. Frankly I have never heard of such a movement. The sources given in the article don't talk about the possibility of "unifying the Commonwealth", they reference statistical facts about the countries possibly involved or (in the case of the two Canadian references) they call for the dissolution of the Commonwealth of Nations, not its unification.

Delete No real evidence that there is such a movement. Sources seem to be mostly talking about free trade, not unification.Kitfoxxe (talk) 14:59, 12 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
delete sources are not directly discussing the topic at hand, if at all. Gaijin42 (talk) 16:58, 12 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I agree with above. Even if we had a few a sources on the topic, Commonwealth of Nations would be the place to put such information, and a separate article would only be justified if there was so much content, that it needed a separate article. But, we're not even at the point of having a single quote from a single notable person suggesting such a thing. --Rob (talk) 05:33, 13 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I have found mention of such a movement from a 1909 New Zealand newspaper, the Otago Daily Times. There does not appear to be anything more current there. NealeFamily (talk) 08:41, 16 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
