Abstract
Last December, 2007, I meet up with Martin Garber-Conrad in the McCauley – Boyle neighborhood where he lives, and we spent a few hours chatting over coffees at the La Dolce Vita Cafe, an institution in Edmonton’s Little Italy. Martin Garber-Conrad is the Director of the Edmonton Community Foundation. He and I are working together on a large SSHRC research project examining the social economy in British Columbia and Alberta (BALTA). I thought I might take the opportunity to learn more from a long-time practitioner in the field. I asked Martin about his work with the Edmonton Community Foundation, and the brand new Edmonton Social Enterprise Fund . Martin set out the evolution of these projects by telling me about one of his first ‘social enterprises’ and along the way we explored some other significant collaborations he led to save Heritage Buildings in Edmonton and repurpose them to shelter social economy organizations

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
