Abstract
This paper explains a specific anticolonial feminism theoretical framework, which is utilized as a lens to enact a critical discourse analysis to uncover the ways white settler colonial ideology and discourse is (re)produced and subverted in the Ontario English curricula. This is important as the documents aim to be inclusive in their introductory goals, but throughout the documents’ expectations they (re)produce white settler colonial ideology and discourse. Although sometimes framed in problematic ways, there are opportunities within the curricula to subvert white settler colonial ideology and discourse. Overall, the paper brings to light the overt and covert ways in which the Ontario English curricula both (re)produces and subverts white settler colonial ideology and discourse and the importance of remaining in these uncomfortable spaces for reflection.

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
