SHANAN HALBERT: Now, that was 13 years ago. It was a very good idea—it was a very good idea. In my time in Tāmaki-makau-rau, I have had the blessings and joys of seeing that growth of our city, our biculturalism, our stories and mātauranga of mana whenua in that city. It is imprinted in that city now to the extent that across new buildings and infrastructure, in transport, we see Māori designs everywhere, from mana whenua, so that all of our tamariki, our generations to come, will see their imprint across the infrastructure of our city. That's not just hopes, aspirations, and ideologies; that is the beauty of Aotearoa New Zealand, where we stand here together—that we uniquely acknowledge and accept all of our voices to be heard. If we seek to look at democracy as purely one vote—one vote per person, a mathematical equation—that is not going to achieve the representation that we seek as a country. That is not going to make us richer in the Aotearoa New Zealand that we all aspire for our tamariki mokopuna, for our children and young people, moving forward.
