Dividing tribal nations, keeping them apart, has always worked. And fighting for scraps always worked, too.

Authentic Self-Determination starts with not accepting illiterate inherited imperial colonial notions as to what money itself is. Colonial western governments are themselves at odds with simple logical and mathematical principles of Abstract Representation and Applied Mathematics.

As Marc Gauvin, formerly of Canada and now in Spain, teaches: "an "abstraction" in math/logic is a representation of the essential structure and properties of a pre-existing 'thing". To be valid, an "abstraction" cannot initiate the existence of anything new. Formal intenSional [1] definitions are abstractions while extenSional definitions are not.

Our definitions of natural physical phenomena are also abstractions as are the logic and relations that emanate from the physical universe and that underlie human "inventions" adapted to operate in the physical world. Math and formal logic are in essence discovered as opposed to being invented.

Purely human constructs like "money" in order to be meaningful in any common domain e.g. material real world economy, must be defined in terms of said domains in valid intenSional logic Otherwise they are useless absurdities, at best laughable but never as foundational concept of anything relevant.

It seems to me that First Nations can challenge the imposed systems of imperial colonial money on the basis of the illiteracy of such systems.

I highly encourage Tribal Leaders to study and challenge the thing called money itself in colonial systems of it as being illiterate and impossible, and in violation of basic principles of law even within these same colonial governing legal systems.
