Threatened Litigation Returns Abortion Access to Prince Edward Island after 34 Years.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
On March 31, 2016, the government of Prince Edward Island committed to provide medical and surgical abortions in a public health facility in the Province by the end of the year, for the first time since 1982. The Province's announcement was a direct response to threatened Charter litigation initiated by a group of local veteran activists called Abortion Access Now PEI Inc., which challenged the government's policy not to provide abortion services in the Province. In this commentary, legal counsel for Abortion Access Now PEI Inc. situate the recent litigation efforts within the history of abortion access and advocacy in PEI. They attribute the reversal of the government's position to the successful refraining of the Province's abortion policy in the threatened litigation and the sustained and creative approaches employed by abortion access activists.

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.
