Abstract
This chapter presents the PFC-Quebec corpus (440 speakers, 400+ hours of recordings) of French spoken in Quebec, especially its Laurentian variety. After a brief overview of Quebec’s geolinguistic research, it discusses the methodological adjustments adopted in the application of the general PFC ( Phonologie du français contemporain ) protocol to a specific variety that diverges in many respects from the French spoken in other areas. The relevance and potential of this corpus is illustrated by a dialectometric analysis of a small number of words whose pronunciation is subject to geolinguistic variation within Quebec. The data reveal quite complex geophonological structures and largely, but not completely, converge with the self-representation data from Avanzi and Thibault (2020) .

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 it
