| About Westland Anniversary Day |
| The Westland Province was a province of New Zealand from 1873 until the abolition of provincial government in 1876. The capital was Hokitika. The Provinces were created in 1853. In 1873 the county formed its own Province, the short-lived Westland Province. In 1868 James Alexander Bonar, who is chairman of the Westland, swore 64o special constables to suppress an Irish nationalist procession in Hokitika. On December 1, 1873 Westland split from Canterbury Province. New Zealand law still provides for a provincial anniversary day. |
