Thank you for explaining this so clearly.

I've thought about the treaties in this part of Canada. It seems that if the First Nations no longer depended on the governments remuneration/assistance and then refused to receive it, then the government would no longer have any claims to the land according to the treaty.

The problem is that it necessitates a low time preference on the part of the individuals within the First Nations. However, both them and us of European descent have been propagandized by the fiat education system/media. I think #Bitcoin may help us regain our sovereignty as individuals and maybe eventually as communities and cultural groups.
