Abstract
This contribution examines the effect of the explicit and implicit equalization activities of the Canadian federal government for the period 1981–2001. It deals with two programmes which transfer resources to provinces (the Equalization programme and the Canadian Health and Social Transfer); and two which transfer resources to individuals (the Employment Insurance and the Old Age Security Programmes). The focus on the implicit equalization effects of programmes not explicitly designed to favour poorer regions is novel. Taking explicit and implicit equalization together there is evidence of provincial convergence in terms of GDP per capita and personal income per capita on to the national average. This finding qualifies the hypothesis that equalization retards the economic growth of recipient regions.

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
