Original Note:
The performance of Ka Mate was done by representatives of Destiny Church. Destiny Church is a fundamentalist Church, and is politically placed on the far-right. As such they have been repeatedly asked by Ngāti Toa, the iwi to whom the haka belongs, to stop performing it https://www.renews.co.nz/ngati-toa-iwi-tells-anti-vax-protestors-to-stop-using-ka-mate-haka/ https://i.stuff.co.nz/national/christchurch-shooting/113929249/populist-and-farright-rhetoric-gains-currency-in-new-zealands-political-fringe
