- How widespread are white supremacist views (including Islamophobia) in Canterbury?
- How really welcome are minority cultures and ethnic groups in Canterbury?
- Is religion a unifying or dividing force in society?
- Have the NZ security services paid too much attention to potential Jihadists and too little to white supremacists?
- Do gun control laws need tightening?
