Abstract
Bourinot's Rules of Order, a title not used for his book, A Canadian Manual on the Procedure at Meetings, until sixteen years after his death in 1902.Members and staff of Canadian legislatures and others interested in procedure in the Parliament of Canada may know that Bourinot also wrote a larger book called Parliamentary Procedure and Practice, but many confuse these two Bourinot books, not realizing the difference between them.In fact, Bourinot's writing on parliamentary procedure, both in its original sense and as adapted to the needs of ordinary societies, was only one aspect of his many-faceted life.He began his career as a journalist and parliamentary reporter.He soon gained recognition as an historian and litterateur.In 1880, after holding various offices on the parliamentary staff in Ottawa, he was appointed clerk of the House of Commons, a position he held until his death.In 1882., he became a founding member of the Royal Society of Canada and continued to be one of its most active members during the last twenty years of his life.He was consulted by governors general, prime ministers, lieutenant governors, and provincial premiers on constitutional matters, and by speakers and clerks of the legislatures of the Canadian provinces on questions relating to parliamentary procedure.He has been called Canada's first political scientist.A full-length biography of Sir John George Bourinot is long overdue.Bourinot's expertise was greatest in the fields of parliamentary procedure and constitutional law and history.Initially, I became aware of

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
