Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This article examines the ways in which René Lévesque has been remembered in English Canada and Quebec. In English Canada, Lévesque has been embraced as a generally likeable and honest man who made Canada a better and stronger country. In Quebec, in contrast, while there continues to be considerable affection for the man, many nationalists have a much more ambivalent attitude towards him. His legacy there is entwined with the failure of Quebec to achieve political independence, and so there remains among many nationalists a sense of disappointment with his time in office. This essay suggests that attitudes about Lévesque in English Canada and Quebec have been determined by each group’s sense of its own proximity to the centre of political power. English Canadians can embrace Lévesque with the knowledge that he failed in his effort to make Quebec sovereign. Quebec nationalists, however, must deal with the consequences of this failure and come to terms with Lévesque’s part in that failure.

Not 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.
