Abstract
LE CANADA DANS L'ORBITE AMERICAINE La mort des theories integrationnistes? Edited by Albert Legault Sainte-Foy: Les Presses de l'Universite Lavai, 2004. viii, i63pp, $24.00 paper (ISBN 2-7637-8136-5)This edited collection of essays on selected dimensions of continental North American relations (though largely Canada-US ones) is the product of a research team that, with one exception, is based in various research centres, groups, and chairs at l'Universite du Quebec a Montreal (UQAM), whose Centre Etude Internationales et Mondialisation (CEIM) served as the umbrella organization for the team. The book itself forms part of a series sponsored by the Canada Research Chair in international security at l'Universite Laval.Not surprisingly, from a book bringing together such a variety of research talents and approaches, the reader gets the impression that the project leaders have resisted with only incomplete success the urge to play Procrustes, the mythic Greek brigand with two beds, one large and one small, who had the unwholesome habit of making his tall prisoners lie down in the small bed, cutting off their feet so that they could fit, and depositing his small prisoners onto the large bed, where they would be brutally stretched to fill out the mattress.Although this book bears a promising subtitle, bidding the reader to contemplate whether theory has lost whatever applicability it may once have had for the North American setting, it turns out that what we really have here is instead straight out of Procrustes: a theoretical hostage being made to lie down on an undersized conceptual bed, with the result being a woefully truncated presentation of integration theory. Fortunately, this particular operation is over quickly, and takes place in a curiously titled part of the book (Presentation) that, just as curiously for a chapter in an edited volume, seems to have no author-or at least no one willing to admit to authorship.Once past this early unpleasantness, the editor goes on to present us with a rich collection of essays that address, from diverse perspectives, the following substantive themes: Canadian and American practices and policies related to border security and to immigration (by Andre Donneur and Valentin Chirica); the attainability of genuine North American security trilateralism embracing Mexico (by Athanasios Hristoulas, a Mexicobased professor who is the sole non-UQAM contributor, and Stephane Roussel); petroleum and natural gas production, investment, and trade in a bilateral, Canada-US, marketplace (by the editor, Albert Legault); the evolving North American (again, really Canada-US) telecommunications sector (by Michele Rioux); and the current state and future prospects of Canada's defence industrial base within its bilateral continental setting (by Yves Belanger, with Aude Fleurant). …

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
