Economic transition in the Canadian north: Is migrant-induced, neo-endogenous development playing a role?
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Economic transition is necessary to prolong the lifespan of formerly resource-dependent places. This article seeks to discover if migrant-induced, neo-endogenous development is contributing to this process in Dawson City, Yukon Territory, Canada. This once mine-dependent municipality emerged during the Klondike Gold Rush, but has since transitioned into a multi-functional space that capitalizes on its cultural assets. Using survey and interview data, we discover that migrants, particularly southern counterurbanites, have contributed to Dawson’s evolution. Their injection of externally accumulated capital has enhanced the community’s identity, mobilized local labour, and built local factor capacities. Our findings confirm that migrant-induced, neo-endogenous development is contributing to economic transition in this formerly resource-dependent region. Our results have implications for other isolated spaces, hoping to establish new economic identities. Keywords: in-migrants; neo-endogenous development; counterurbanites; Dawson City Résumé La transition économique est nécessaire pour prolonger la durée de vie des endroits auparavant dépendants des ressources naturelles. Cet article cherche à découvrir si le développement néo-endogène dû aux migrants contribue à ce processus, à Dawson City au Yukon, au Canada. Cette municipalité autrefois dépendante de l'exploitation minière, émergea lors de la ruée vers l'or de Klondike, mais est depuis devenue un espace multifonctionnel qui capitalise sur ses avantages culturels. À l'aide de sondages et de données d'entrevue, nous découvrons que les migrants, particulièrement ceux de la désurbanisation du sud, ont contribué à l'évolution de Dawson. Leurs apports de capitaux externes cumulés ont amélioré l'identité de la communauté, mobilisé la main-d'œuvre locale, et renforcé les capacités locales de facteur. Nos conclusions confirment que les migrants-induits, le développement néo-endogène contribue à la transition économique dans cette région anciennement dépendante des ressources naturelles. Nos résultats ont des répercussions sur d'autres endroits isolés, souhaitant établir de nouvelles identités économiques.

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.
