Encourage Government to Reconsider the Treaty Principles Bill

The issue

The Treaty Principles Bill, as it stands, appears to disregard the spirit of the Treaty of Waitangi - the founding document of our nation. This document, signed in 1840, symbolizes a unique partnership between Māori and the Crown, highlighting mutual respect, cooperation, and protection. However, the implementation of this new Bill threatens to disturb these decades-old principles. We must remember that these principles aren't just historical facts, they form the backbone of our society and directly impact the current and future socio-political landscape. 

Therefore, we implore the government to re-evaluate the proposed Treaty Principles Bill. It should be reminded that any legislation that undermines these pivotal partnership principles endangers the socio-cultural harmony we’ve achieved over the years. Please join this cause and sign this petition today.
