What it is
The river of a dollar, read left to right through nine stations, from its source in the Nation’s accounts, where every headwater arrives as Canadian dollars held on deposit, through the Nation’s growth, to its mouth, back to Canadian dollars at par, blue at its centre with green banks paling into the tan, with you on its bank, nine headwaters where capital can come in, three today and six from the Schedule of Unjust Enrichment (Gazette No. 61) when the Nation’s exclusive use and enjoyment is observed, and six tributaries where a dollar can be spent inside the Nation, running blue from its source, green through the Nation and tan at its mouth; beneath it GR$ 1 = CA$ 1 with no exchange rate, spread or fee, the three totals that must agree every day and a day’s proof as published; then a business’s GR$50.00 sale with what the river builds, the Nation’s purposes, the seven protections with the four questions people ask first, and the night’s seal chained onward to the Ledger, OpenTimestamps and Bitcoin. On the web the dollar travels the river station by station, each station and tributary answers a tap, the day’s proof reads the Register’s own reserves live, a member’s year stands in figures, the two rivers run side by side, the totals count up and agree, the phone pays on a tap, and the seal builds from its leaves.

How it was made
An illustration, drawn from the sources below; printed in A3 landscape (420 × 297 mm), with A2 and A1 print files, 3 mm bleed and crop marks.
How surely
An illustration, not a survey: the figures stand for no particular family. The Three Villages’ inset is the Register’s own land map, drawn from its layers.
A poster: it teaches, and does not decide. The record of any person’s line is the Register’s.

How the records are kept
The records of the Mohawk Nation of Grand River Secretariat are kept in the Nation’s Register, an electronic records system kept in the usual and ordinary course of the Secretariat’s work. When a file is taken into the Map Room its SHA-256 fingerprint is taken at once and entered in the Register’s integrity log, in which every entry is sealed with the fingerprint of the entry before it; a certified version’s files cannot be changed, and a change makes a new version, the old being kept. At the date of this certificate the log holds 36 entries and, read through, every entry seals the one before it.
