Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This article suggests that invocations of the notwithstanding clause should be evaluated by citizens' juries: small groups of citizens tasked with hearing evidence from stakeholders (and experts) and passing judgment on the legitimacy of their government's invocation of section 33. Above all, we argue that the establishment of such bodies would better redeem the democratic promise of section 33, which we characterize as an attempt to swap judicial scrutiny of laws and actions that impact fundamental rights for popular scrutiny. There is no perfect way to do this, of course, but we suggest that citizens' juries could at least compensate for some of the limitations of the electoral scrutiny that is presupposed by section 33's sunset clause while still offering a more ostensibly democratic review mechanism than judicial review.

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.

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.
