Abstract
In most communities the relationship between trade unions and social activist organizations is usually underdeveloped and uneven. Likewise trade unions usually have no organic connections to unorganized workers and contribute little to the task of representing these workers in their struggles against employers and government agencies. The Workers Organizing and Resource Centre (WORC), a collective administered by trade unionists and social activists, is an attempt to bridge this solitude. Since it was established in 1998, WORC has been the home to numerous working class advocacy organizations and a hub of progressive activity in Winnipeg. Its mandate is to facilitate the development of community organizations, provide advocacy work for non union workers, and to assist in organizing the unorganized. This paper describes the function that WORC plays in the Winnipeg progressive community and discusses the relationship to its sole source of funding, the national office of the Canadian Union of Postal Workers. Dans la plupart des communautés, les relations entre les syndicats et les autres organisations d’action sociale sont habituellement sous-développées et inégales. Les syndicats n’ont habituellement pas de lien organique avec les travailleurs et les travailleuses non syndiqués et ne contribuent guère à leur représentation dans les luttes qu’ils livrent aux employeurs et aux organismes gouvernementaux. Le Workers Organizing and Resource Centre (WORC), collectif administré par des militantes et militants syndicaux et sociaux, tente de combler cette lacune. Depuis sa création, en 1998, le WORC a accueilli de nombreuses organisations militantes de la classe travailleuse et a constitué une plaque tournante de l’activité progressiste à Winnipeg. Il a pour mandat de faciliter le développement d’organisations communautaires, d’attribuer des tâches de défense de cause aux travailleurs et travailleuses non syndiqués et d’aider à la syndicalisation des personnes non syndiquées. L’article décrit le rôle que le WORC joue dans la communauté progressiste de Winnipeg et le rapport qu’il entretient avec son unique source de fonds, qui est le bureau national du Syndicat des travailleurs et travailleuses des postes

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
