Yes, Provinces are well recognized in New Zealand, though their legal significance is almost zero. They are prominent in sporting activity, and of course in parochialism.

You'll still find reference to them in such areas as "Otago Regional Council" or "Ecan" in the case of Canterbury. And in historic land district boundaries.

But they do not have the importance of say the Canadian Provinces.
