Latin American Communities in Canada: Trends in Diversity and Integration
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper provides an overview of the Latin American population in Canada based on data extracted from the 2011 census and from a survey conducted in 2013 with an oversample of Latin American immigrants, as well as from other sources. It deals with the ways in which Latin Americans are categorized and how they self-identify in Canada—with the U.S. reality as a point of reference—and with a focus on Latin Americans’ cultural attitudes and values in a Québec-rest of Canada comparative perspective. Cet article établit un portrait de la population latino-américaine du Canada sur la base de données tirée du recensement de 2011 et d’un sondage réalisé en 2013 avec un échantillon d’immigrants latino-américains, ainsi que d’autres sources. On s’intéresse en particulier à la manière dont les Latino-américains sont catégorisés et à leurs modalités d’auto-identification dans le contexte canadien et nord-américain. On examine également leurs attitudes culturelles et leurs valeurs dans une perspective comparative entre le Québec et le reste du Canada.

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.
