Abstract
This chapter provides an account of modern science communication in Canada, including historical factors influencing its development, and the development of the distinct Province of Quebec. Canada is a bilingual country. Over 24 million Canadians (74 per cent of the population) speak English at home, and nearly 8.2 million (23 per cent) speak French. Over 5.7 million people (71 per cent of the population) in Quebec speak only French at home (Statistics Canada, 2017). Britain's conquest of New France 1 in the 1760s and Canada's Westminster democratic governance structures and institutions and membership of the Commonwealth significantly shape the country's activities. The 10 Canadian provinces retain several exclusive rights that the Canadian parliament and the federal government cannot infringe upon, and provinces and territories actively work to preserve their cultural distinctiveness through these rights. Quebec's efforts for political, social, economic and cultural emancipation, starting in the interwar years, continue to influence the lives of Canadians in and outside Quebec. Canada also continues to feel the social, cultural, economic and political impacts of its largest neighbour and trade partner, the United States It ended with the cession of New France to Great Britain and Spain in 1763 under the Treaty of Paris.

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
