Damn I hope that doesn't pass

It didn't. Not even close. It failed 121-11

Those 11 were members of the party that proposed it, and every other party voted against it unanimously.

Thanks for letting me know. I'm not from NZ but I met some Maori years ago doing a tour and thought that they were really cool and awesome people. So even though I'm not from around there or directly affected I still like showing support when I can.
