Abstract
Les purges de scurit anti-homosexuelles organises par le Security Panel et imposes par la GRC, constituent un triste chapitre dans l'histoire canadienne de la Guerre froide.Ce texte raconte certaines expriences de l'auteure alors qu'elle a traver s un labyrinthe de documents classifis, de documents d'archives et de documents historiques conservs dans des ministres pendant qu'elle faisait de la recherche pour le livre The Canadian War on Queers: National Security as Sexual Regulation, qu'elle a crit avec Gary Kinsman.L'auteure soutient que l'tat de scurit nationale peut se servir de la Loi sur l'accs l'information (AI) pour crer des dfis et des obstacles pour les historiens des minorits sexuelles qui sont la recherche de contenu gai et lesbien dans les archives.Le texte avance aussi l'hypothse que dans le contexte de la Guerre contre la terreur , la Loi antiterroriste renforcera l'impact ngatif de l'AI, ce qui aura des rpercussions nuisibles pour la rdaction de l'histoire gaie et lesbienne.ABSTRACT The anti-homosexual security purges organized by the Security Panel and enforced by the RCMP, represent a sad chapter in Canadian Cold War history.This essay offers some of the author's experiences as she negotiated the "maze" of classified documents, archives, and historical records held at government depart ments while researching her book The Canadian War on Queers: National Security as Sexual Regulation, co-authored with Gary Kinsman.The author contends that the national security state can deploy the Access to Information Act (ATI) to create chal lenges and obstacles for queer historians in their effort to find queers in -or to queer -the archives.The essay also speculates that in the context of the "war on terror," the Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA) will reinforce the negative impact of ATI and thus have detrimental implications for the writing of queer history.

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
