Abstract
Abstract The article presents a case study of precarious noncitizen healthcare politics based on participant observation and interviews conducted between 2009 and 2012, as well as on documentary evidence collected during this period and up to 2016. It examines how state regulations, social networks, cultural narratives, and discretion come together to assemble the terms of access to healthcare for migrant noncitizens. Analysis shows how local contestation over healthcare policies, procedures and delivery practices contribute to the production of the formal and substantive boundaries between and within citizenship and noncitizenship. The case study identifies how precarious legal status and illegality inform the regulatory incongruencies and discursive fragility of Canada’s liberal welcome for newcomers. It contributes to specifying the conceptual terrain of contemporary battles over the terms of membership for migrant noncitizens in the Global North.

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
