Abstract
Appulonappa and its companion case, B010, lie at the confluence of many debates about global migration and its governance. Both cases arose following the arrival in Canada of hundreds of Sri Lankan Tamils on two cargo boats, the M.V. Ocean Lady in October 2009 and the M.V. Sun Sea in August 2010. These were asylum seekers who came to Canada on dangerous vessels because more secure, less costly routes were shut to them. They were also illegal immigrants whose success entering Canada might fuel more migrant smuggling, a transnational criminal phenomenon with the potential to undermine national security. Safe to say, the former Conservative government adopted the latter view and proceeded accordingly. And it was a blow to the government’s enforcement-minded response when the Supreme Court unanimously found that the government could neither prosecute (in Appulonappa) nor find inadmissible (in B010) asylum seekers for helping one another enter the country illegally, nor could it take such actions against humanitarian workers or family members acting from non-financial motives.

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.
