Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Maintaining a relatively stable imprisonment rate since the 1960s, Canadian incarceration rates have long been exceptional and stood in stark contrast to those of its comparators, most notably the United States and England and Wales. More recently, however, it appears as though Canada has been taking a punitive turn, as imprisonment rates are growing rapidly, despite continued decreases in reported crime. Whether or not this shift in Canada's penal approach will have a long‐term impact on Canadian corrections remains to be seen. We fear that the current shift might further marginalize Canada's Aboriginal population as well as other racial minorities, given their vast over‐incarceration and mounting allegations of racial discrimination within the justice system.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
