AIBU to not understand Swiss vs Canadian Brexit?

[vivaVasLagas]

I'm reasonably intelligent so suspect I could manage (with extensive reading) to understand what this means but could anyone explain in layman's' terms, what these two ideas are?

From the little I do understand, Canadian Brexit means keeping EU rules but without a veto / vote on anything (no idea what it's Canadian though).

FWIW, I voted to remain but accept the result. This isn't about the rights and wrongs though. Just trying to understand the future.

Its my laymans understanding that Canadian Brexit means leaving the EU with a clean break and doing a free trade deal with them, just like Canada has. It covers over 90 % of goods, would involve no membership fees, no freedom of movement, no control by the European Court of Justice. Personally I think we will get a better deal than Canada.

The Swiss Brexit means essentially staying in the EU, keeping the free market, a version of free movement of people, we still pay a large membership fee and are controlled by the ECJ. But we get no say over anything. So a pretty bad Brexit, more sensibly called pretend Brexit.

Swiss citizen here :-) Yes, user's explanation is my understanding too. I believe that under the Swiss model the UK payment into the EU would be smaller than it is now (40% I heard on the Today programme?) and there would be free market access but probably not for some banking (no financial passporting) so not as good as now. Switzerland has lately had a vote to limit free movement via quotas but it looks like the government will not be pursuing that basically because their treaties with the EU link free market access to free movement. They control immigration to a certain extent through minimum wages and requirements for firms to advertise jobs to locals, but those are controls that would have been available to the UK in the EU anyway.
