Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In 1969 the Canadian and New Brunswick governments reached an agreement for the creation of a national park on the province's eastern shore, roughly 100 kilometres north of Moncton.The establishment of Kouchibouguac National Park could only take place, however, after all of the residents--over 1200 in total--were removed from their lands.Such expropriations constituted the norm for creation of national parks at the time, and the New Brunswick government--which would be responsible for the actual removal of the residents --was willing to go along, believing that this was a way to improve the lives of the population of Kent County, by any standard one of the poorest places in Canada.However, no one asked the residents what they thought, and in the years that followed, while most residents quietly left in order to start their new lives, often in nearby communities, others resisted--sometimes barricading the park or resorting to acts of vandalism.The most prominent of the resisters, Jackie Vautour, refused to leave his land and remains within the territory of the park, a squatter who provides a living link to this story.The expropriations at the heart of the Kouchibouguac story have reverberated in various media over the past forty years.To a considerable degree, the story has been constructed as an Acadian one: most--but not all--of the expropris were Acadians and the conflict emerged at a time of a redefinition of Acadian identity, part of a rvolution tranquille acadienne.As Acadians were insisting upon recognition of their distinct identity--a process that led to New Brunswick becoming the only officially bilingual province in Canada--the cause of the expropris became a metaphor for the plight of Acadians more generally, a people whose pivotal historical moment had been its eighteenth-century deportation, the first modern example of ethnic cleansing.In this context, the Kouchibouguac story has provided the focus for documentary films, theatrical productions, novels, and music.However, little historical research has been carried out, and the testimony of those who were removed has not been collected in any systematic way, the story of Jackie Vautour often crowding out the less dramatic, but no less significant stories of the vast majority.One of the goals of my project, Kouchibouguac in History and Memory, supported by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada, is to allow the voices of the expropris to be heard.Working in collaboration with Concordia's Centre for Oral History and Digital Storytelling, this project will collect the life stories of expropriates who still live in the shadow of the park.This documentation will provide a source of information for the book that will be produced, and which will also take advantage of the rich archival sources at the

Not 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.
