When I did my swearing in, I held a copy of the Tai Rāwhiti page from Te Tiriti o Waitangi, known as Page Seven. It was a way of acknowledging that my ancestors signed the Treaty in good faith. It helped to resolve the dissonance I felt, and a little bit of hypocrisy, at having to swear allegiance to the Queen. That whole thing, how the British Empire was built on the oppression of indigenous and black people, just makes it really awkward. Shout-out to all of the people seeking freedom from white supremacy. From the Black Lives Matter movement to indigenous peoples across the world, we stand in solidarity with you. Mr Speaker, I recall that you used that same page when you did your swearing in. One day—maybe today—if I need more time to advocate for iwi of Ikaroa-Rāwhiti, I may remind you of that.
