Masculinity and the Making of Trans-Canada Air Lines, 1937-1940: A Feminist Poststructuralist Account
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract This paper presents a feminist poststructuralist account of the role of men and masculinity in the development of Air Canada, specifically in its early years and the development of the organization's culture. It is argued that an understanding of the development of gendered practices (i.e., the development of male associated or dominated work) over time can help us to understand and identify how such practices develop, are maintained, and also change. Résumé Le présent article est un compte-rendu féministe et post-structuraliste du rôle que les hommes et la masculinité ont joué dans le développement d'Air Canada et, particulièrement, dans l'institution de sa culture sexiste. L'auteur soutient que la connaissance de la façon dont cette culture s'est instituée (celle qui fait croire que les postes d'Air Canada sont réservés aux hommes) peut nous permettre de mieux comprendre et de mieux déterminer les mécanismes de son établissement, de son maintien et de son évolution.

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.
