Abstract
The decision of the Ontario Court of Appeal in R. v. A. (J.) raises the important issue of whether a woman can give prior consent to sexual activity that takes place while she is unconscious and has significant implications for our understanding of consent generally. The decision of the majority, which endorses the possibility of valid advance consent, poses serious risks for the safety and bodily integrity of women and is inconsistent with the definition of non-consent developed by Canadian courts in the past two decades.The authors review several other cases and concludes that Canadian courts have rejected the notion that passivity can be equated with consent and unconsciousness is the ultimate passivity. They conclude it is vitally important to women's sexual equality that they never be deemed to be consenting to sexual activity in the absence of current capacity to consent.

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.
