Finding Order in Calgary's Cash Corner: Using Legal Pluralism to Craft Legal Remedies for Conflicts Involving Marginalized Persons in Public Spaces
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Binners, book and magazine sellers, day labourers protestors, and sex workers are fixtures in our Canadian urban jungle that the law seeks to regulate. Legal responses to the existence of marginalized persons in public spaces have aimed at excluding them from public space. Much of the work employing legal pluralism as a lens through which we view our urban landscape focuses on the effect of the law on marginalized communities. The courts are increasingly being asked by marginalized communities to mediate conflicts arising in public spaces. This article analyzes this effect on marginalized communities and suggests that, in finding remedies, the courts should take guidance from ethnographic research using a legal pluralism lens.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
