Fun fact about this: New Brunswick is the only province that has both English and French as its official languages. The others have one or the other, but not both.

New Zealand has THREE OFFICIAL languages: English, Maori, and NZ sign language!
Yes, yes, these are actually all official languages of this wonderful country, and it really makes me proud.

I wish. Only one fluently. I know a bit of Maori but not much, and a bit of the basics in sign. Though it is incredibly amazing to watch a national press conference from the Prime minster (like we had during Covid last year) and seeing a person stand to the left signing her speech.

Yeah. Though we still aren’t that perfect, I think we do a pretty good job to respect our native language/culture, as well as treat everyone who has chosen NZ as their home equally. A perfect example of the latter, was when we received our first (and only) terrorist attack. It was one pathetic excuse for a human attacking two mosques and immediately our prime minister made a heart-warming address. Plus, a month later, a bill was passed, banning all semi-automatic firearms in attempt to stop anything like this happening again. I mean, you could have them with a licence but now, not at all.
