Abstract
The first part of this chapter provides an historical overview of the Canadian asylum process. The second part explores how international and constitutional law structures shapes and constrains asylum law in Canada. The next two sections discuss elements of the asylum regime through an enlarged conception of the right to be heard. In its traditional and limited iteration (audi alteram partem, or 'hear the other side'), this right is familiar to any student of administrative law in the common law world. A somewhat figurative concept of the right to be heard is used here in order to consider different points in Canadian legal and geographical space where the asylum seeker's audibility is enabled or muted. In particular, attention is drawn to the limits imposed by conventional legal doctrine on what will be, or can be, heard from the other side of a cultural divide, a hearing room, or a border. The conclusion contemplates a separate but related dialogue that has emerged recently, partly in response to the obfuscating noise and troubling silences in the existing regime.

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
