Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Rooted in Canada’s history as a British colony, the Criminal Code defence to “reasonable corrective force” remains in force today. In this article, I trace the history of Canada’s law, describe various attempts made to remove it, and present the many recommendations and calls for repeal issued over recent decades. While Canada has stood still, 65 countries have removed their legal defences and prohibited all corporal punishment of children. At this time, Canada has another opportunity to finally remove this archaic defence, as two Private Members’ Bills have been introduced in the House of Commons and the Senate, respectively. By seizing this opportunity, Canada will demonstrate its commitments to children’s rights to protection and dignity, and uphold its pledges to end violence against children and women in Canada.

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.
