Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

T he following is my personal experience with respect to Correctional Service Canada's (CSC) human rights abuses under the Harper government's punishment agenda.The way I discerned this punishment agenda developing was similar to how other countries in the past would centre out a powerless and branded segment of society to oppress.They incite vicious hatred against the group and categorize them into one group of 'enemies'.This method conveniently separates them from the rest of normal society.Once the Harper Conservatives were able to instill this into the public whenever some tragedy occurred in the communities, it would beat the justice and public safety drum loud.Often leading the correctional oppression against the criminalized was Mr. Vic Toews, who was Justice Minister from February 2006 to January 2007 and the Public Safety Minister from January 2010 to July 2013.He seemed to dislike all the federal prisoners whom he labelled as 'off enders', contributing to the division between the Canadian people and the incarcerated.He especially seemed to dislike the prisoners serving life terms for murder, which are sentences that can leave one behind bars indefi nitely.He stated, along with many other Conservatives, that Canadian people convicted for murder should never be out in the community on parole, which sent the message to all community parole services across Canada to revoke and return to prison as many Lifers they could get away with under the guise of public safety.Not satisfi ed with the re-incarceration of many of these prisoners, the retribution continued.He dismantled Life Line, the only program CSC had for prisoners sentenced to life under some form of state supervision.His offi ce then created policies to make it more diffi cult for Lifers to attain any form of release.First, the policy of requiring Lifers to go before the Parole Board Canada (PBC) panels for Escorted Temporary Absences (ETAs) contributes to the unnecessary delays and is used as a punishment stick.This practice also stripped the power of penitentiary wardens to approved ETAs to eligible prisoners who earned it.Re-incarcerating all those paroled Lifers also clogs up the rehabilitation and release process for the ones still working for freedom.It is bizarre to require a Lifer to repeat the ETA process when they have been in the community for extended periods of time.This glaring punishment policy needs to be removed, with wardens again having the power to approve medical, compassionate and re-socialization ETAs.

Not 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.
