Poll: Do you support having a non-traditional Santa?
Nelson's bi-cultural Christmas parade has caused a stir and some confusion among Santa's young fans. The traditional white-bearded, jolly man was replaced in the parade by a Māori man representing Santa Claus. Read the full story here.
Although many people were for the idea, some parents felt "blindsided" that they weren't forewarned that Hana Kōkō would be stepping in for Santa Claus. The parade's organisers have since apologised.

So, you've got a job, maybe a full plate, but you’re staring at your bank account thinking, "Hmm, I could use a little extra cash. Or a lot. But I don't want to spend every free minute working my life away."
