Protecting the right to pursue a livelihood for foreign-trained professionals: toward building an enabling regulatory system
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The literature developed in Canada on the impact of conditions imposed by professional associations on the fundamental rights of foreign-trained professionals has focused primarily on the right to equality, while the discussion could also be centred on the right to pursue a livelihood. This article suggests a post-welfare state interpretation of the right to pursue a livelihood based on the capabilities approach and the enabling state. For foreign-trained professionals immigrating to a new country, empowerment starts with the ability to earn a living in their profession as quickly as possible. To achieve this goal, the author suggests that regulatory systems pertaining to the recognition of qualifications of foreign-trained professionals should be proportionate, contain as few restrictions as possible and take the professional experience of applications into account.

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.
