Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Settler planners who are committed to advancing reconciliation with Indigenous peoples in settler colonial cities are actively decolonizing their praxis. In this Viewpoint, I discuss how settler colonialism is embedded in planning Canadian cities to argue that settler planners should critically interrogate their relationship with the land to address colonialism’s ecological and social legacies. Learning from Indigenous traditional ecological knowledge and the principle of reciprocity in Indigenous methodologies, I demonstrate how planning practice can advance reconciliation and sustainability when planners shift their understanding of land as property to land as relation. I then show how planners can plan with the animacy of the land across various aspects of planning practice. Planning with the animacy of the land respects the land as a living entity that holds stories and knowledge in its sedimented layers and thus can honor Indigenous land relations while advancing more just, sustainable solutions.

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.

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.
