If Keisha has been removed and put on what’s called the dormant roll then re-activating her enrolment should put her back on the Māori roll in time for voting in Māori seat by-election and for local elections. Unless she was on the general roll before being removed

Not since the 1940s has a Canadian Party enjoyed four or more wins on the trot. Quite something that Donald Trump would become the saviour of Canadian progressivism and Davos man Mark Carney the standard bearer of Canadian nationalism.

Be interested in what an Advertising Standards Authority spokesperson would say. If it was actually during an election campaign I’d think some of these codes would arguably be in play
