Perceptions of Diversity: “Multicultural Values” and Living Well Together
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT Situated in the institutional support for Canadian multiculturalism and the academic tensions over the alleged decline of multiculturalism, this paper considers the use of multiculturalism and its associated values in everyday life. In the Canadian context, there has been an expansion of multiculturalism beyond “ Charter values” towards “multicultural values” which shapes social relations and informs the ways that some Canadians see themselves, the conduct of good citizens, and the national imaginary. These values are articulated as equality (or equity), diversity and inclusion, and they have at least partially rescued multiculturalism from some of its alleged failings. Drawing on interview data from Toronto collected as part of the “A Transcultural Approach to Belonging and Engagement among Migrant Youth”, the paper explores perceptions and use of multiculturalism and its associated values.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
