Abstract
The Canadian case represents a distinct variety of financialization under capitalism, one conditioned by the structure of its mortgage markets and the dominant role played by the state in the process of mortgage securitization. Securitization has been a key component of the neoliberalization of housing policy, with new state roles in the insuring, directing and funding of residential mortgage-backed securities both undergirding and justifying the federal shift from the provision of social rental housing toward supporting a rental market increasingly characterized by private sector individualunit landlord-investors. It was primarily the state's control over, and utilization of, the securitization process that maintained the solvency of the financial system in the face of the global financial crisis. However the resulting rapid uptake of liabilities on behalf of both the state and households brought forth new contradictions, necessitating new policy experimentation and reregulation, to which securitization was once again directed and which now articulate the political economy of housing in the country.

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
