Community resilience and resistance in the shadow of offshore fossil fuel development
Bibliographic record
Abstract
For over a decade, concerned citizens and communities in Atlantic Canada have pushed back against planned offshore drilling in the Gulf of Saint Lawrence. Existing on the periphery of provincial and national economies and often outside the focus of government policies designed to create economic growth, these communities have successfully raised awareness of risks from offshore petroleum development and more sustainable alternative industries. We propose a presentation on this issue that focuses on the resistance of PEI citizens to offshore petroleum development in response to direct threats to local industries and the marine environment. The presentation will explore the beginnings of this movement, its accomplishments, struggles and the ability of marginalized citizens to influence government and industry decisions. The potential economic risks and benefits of offshore petroleum development will be compared to more environmentally sensitive, place-based renewable energy options pursued by rural communities elsewhere in North America.

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.
