<br />
Tsm’syen law governs how the Nation engages with external peoples, governments, and entities.<br />
<br />
External relations are conducted deliberately, lawfully, and without surrender of internal authority.<br />
<br />
== Meaning ==<br />
External relations include interactions with:<br />
<br />
* Other Indigenous Nations<br />
* Foreign governments and Crown actors<br />
* Corporations and institutions<br />
* Religious, academic, or non-governmental organizations<br />
* Any entity outside Tsm’syen jurisdiction<br />
<br />
Engagement does not imply subordination.<br />
Dialogue does not imply consent.<br />
<br />
== Legal Principle ==<br />
The Nation speaks outward without silencing its houses.<br />
<br />
External relations must:<br />
<br />
* Respect house and territorial authority<br />
* Reflect articulated shared Ayaawk<br />
* Be consistent with internal law and responsibility<br />
* Preserve the right of internal correction<br />
<br />
No external agreement may override Tsm’syen law.<br />
<br />
== Authority to Engage ==<br />
Authority to conduct external relations:<br />
<br />
* Is derived from houses and communities<br />
* Is specific in scope and purpose<br />
* Is time-bound and revocable<br />
* Must be witnessed and recorded<br />
<br />
No individual or body holds permanent or personal authority to bind the Nation.<br />
<br />
== Limits ==<br />
External relations may not be used to:<br />
<br />
* Centralize authority internally<br />
* Bypass house consent<br />
* Commit future generations without recourse<br />
* Convert dialogue into surrender<br />
* Replace law with policy or convenience<br />
<br />
Any such action is unlawful under Ayaawk.<br />
<br />
== Protection Against Capture ==<br />
Unlawful external engagement results in:<br />
<br />
* Loss of internal legitimacy<br />
* Misrepresentation of authority<br />
* Exposure to external reinterpretation<br />
* Erosion of house and community autonomy<br />
<br />
Clear limits protect both the Nation and its representatives.<br />
<br />
== Continuity ==<br />
External relations must preserve future freedom of action.<br />
<br />
Through lawful conduct:<br />
<br />
* The Nation remains self-determining<br />
* Relationships remain reciprocal<br />
* Agreements remain correctable<br />
* Authority remains internal<br />
<br />
The Nation endures by choosing how it is known.<br />
