Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Canada’s new membership to the International Remembrance Alliance in 2009 bore the anticipation of Canada's commitment against racism of any kind. In this context, I review Holocaust representation in an Ontario Grade Ten course curriculum, ‘Canadian and World History 10’, and its provincially advised textbook, Canadian Sources: Investigated (1914 to the Present) (2008). I critique three main aspects of the portrayal: an ambiguously framed introductory paragraph which may harvest Hitler-centric misconceptions, antisemitism in Canada is presented via various opposing perspectives which obscure a clear image of the term, and an inadequate definition of the term ‘Holocaust’.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
