Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

One indicator of migrants’ diminished status is the way in which entitlements are mediated through discourses of deservingness. Within this framework, access to healthcare, security of residence, choice of employment, and refugee protection are not routinely available on the same basis as those present on the territory as permanent residents or citizens but furnished instead as goods that the non-citizen earns, merits, or otherwise deserves because of their own actions, character, or circumstances. The pandemic disrupted settled narratives of whose labour was ‘essential’ to Canada and, by extension, who deserved permanent residence in Canada. These determinations were entwined with the performance of labour related to healthcare and to pandemic exigencies more broadly. This chapter traces the policy outcomes of that disruption, which consisted of short-term schemes for transitioning a small class of refugee claimants and a larger pool of temporary workers to permanent residence on the basis of pandemic-specific factors. It asks whether these novel pathways to permanent residence might create conditions of possibility for further policy reform.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

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.
