Abstract
The first cracks in the traditional monopolies held by Canadian provincial-government-owned hydroelectric companies and large integrated utilities are beginning to emerge. Among the provinces, Alberta is leading the charge towards deregulation of the Canadian power market. In December 1999, the first non-recourse merchant-power project financing to emerge from Canada hit the syndication market. The 416 MW Joffre Cogeneration Plant in the Province Alberta is a model for future merchant power financings in Alberta and across Canada. Despite the significant progress made in deregulation of the Alberta market, the creation of a broad merchant-power market in Canada is still years away. The force that may eventually drive Canada to merchant power is the increased interconnection with the U.S. and greater participation by Canadian utilities in the developing merchant markets to the south.

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
