Abstract
This book addresses the most pressing issue facing Canadians today -our nation's future in Fortress North America.Not since 1984, when newly elected Prime Minister Brian Mulroney announced to a blue chip business audience in New York City that Canada was "open for business," has the groundwork been laid for such major structural change in Canada's relations with the United States.The same economic and political elite that advanced the Canada-us Free Trade Agreement twenty years ago is back in full force advancing their ambitious agenda of deep continental integration.The grandiose plan includes a North American common market, trade bloc, passport, refugee and immigration systems, resource pact, public policy harmonization, and border regulations, all wrapped up in a North American security perimeter secured from Washington.The call for such a radical vision comes in the wake of September 11 and the growing fears in the us heartland about security -at home and abroad.Canada's big business community contends that, in order to salvage the cross-border trade advances made with the North American Free Trade Agreement (nafta), Canada must offer secured borders and whatever else it will take to satisfy the Washington administration that we are "safe" trading partners.The Canadian Council of Chief Executives (ccce), which has never stopped campaigning for lower standards for cross-border trade, calls this project the North American Security and Prosperity Initiative, and it must have been delighted when the heads of state of the three countries adopted the same slogan at their March 2005 summit in Waco, Texas, and launched the North American Security and Prosperity Partnership.To top it up, Prime Minister Stephen Harper named ten corporate executives to the new North American Competitiveness Council formed at the trilateral leaders' summit held in March 2006 in Cancun, Mexico.This development puts business leaders in the driver's seat and gives them the green light to advance a North American model for business security and prosperity.

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.
