A thread at IIDB about which country has the best constitution had me scratching my head. I was sure we didn't have one, and I'm pretty much right, though not completely. I knew our founding document was The Treaty of Waitangi, and I knew we had a Bill of Rights.
So I googled NZ Constitution to see what I would find, and the
Goveror-General's page on The Constitution of New Zealand totally cracked me up.
