Poll: Would you support a cull of the coast's Canada geese?

Virginia Fallon Reporter from Kāpiti Observer

Let's put it to the vote folks. Ahead of a story we're working on we want to know how many people would support an official council-controlled cull of the Canada geese that have made their homes in Kāpiti.
We'd also love to hear if you have any other ideas that might address people's concerns about the birds- please let us know in the comments.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
