Abstract
Until 1969, Contraception Was Illegal In Canada. According To The Canadian Criminal Code, it was an offense to advertise or sell anything designed to prevent conception. In this book, Brenda Appleby analyses the process of legislative reform that ended in the removal of such references from the Code.In the latter years of the 1960s, a series of public hearings got the debate on contraception well underway. Appleby focuses on the voice of religion in the debate, arguing that the churches made two significant contributions: the first in advocating responsible parenthood, and the second in drawing a clear distinction between civil law and moral law.Current concerns over new reproductive technologies reveal that we continue to be uncertain about the role of law with respect to matters of morality and socially contested values. Informed by hindsight, this book offers a timely overview of the evolution of thought in response to a specific moral issue regulated by law.

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
