Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The election of Donald Trump as the 47th President of the United States has shaken Canadian politics to the core. His intentions to implement 25% across the board tariffs is forecasted to cripple the Canadian economy and combined with his repeated threats to annex Canada as the 51st state, has created an atmosphere of an existential crisis. Canada’s dependence on the United States in the realms of defense, security, and trade makes it extremely vulnerable to the drastic policy shifts the Trump administration is pursuing. Using historical institutionalism to contextualize this imbalanced relationship, this paper seeks to examine the consequences of another Trump presidency on Canada. It will highlight the unprecedented questions facing Canadian policymakers, citizens, and non-governmental actors before suggesting solutions that may mitigate even the most pessimistic predictions.

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.
