Abstract
States engaged in the war on terror have pursued war-time domestic security policies, as reflected by special anti-terror legislation enacted, for instance, in Canada, the United States, and the United Kingdom. Taking Canada as a case study, this article argues that the pursuit of these policies exacerbates existent racial fissures in the social body. Using elements of Giorgio Agamben’s theory of the state of exception as an analytical framework, this article interprets empirical interview and survey data, as well as the Canadian government’s national security policy. It highlights some of the surveillance methods used by Canadian security forces and concludes that the convergence of these methods with the spectacle of extraordinary detention evinces a shift towards totalitarianism. For some, it is not the conditions of parliamentary democracy that constitute the backdrop of political life, but the conditions of the detention camp.

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.
