Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Significance This is Canada's first balanced budget since the 2008-09 financial crisis, but had been delayed by about two months. This was ostensibly due to the government's need to recalibrate projections after the drop in the price of oil but probably also as a means of creating a more favourable calendar in the run-up to the 2015 general election, scheduled for October 19. Impacts Balancing the budget will allow the federal government to present promised legislation requiring balanced budgets in the future. This will hinder future, less fiscally conservative, governments in implementing their agendas. The government will lower the small business income tax level by 2 percentage points over the next four years. The government's increase in spending on defence and security represents a reversal of the trajectory of recent years.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
