Abstract
I nfrastructure seems to be all over the news in Canada.Rarely heard in the media until recently, this somewhat technical term now has become ubiquitous.Given the ways that Canada's relationship with the USA and the world at large is being transformed, infrastructure -often in the form of major extractive projects and transportation corridors -has come to feature prominently in new national imaginaries, brewing regional tensions, and differing visions of the future.As the nation's elbows seem to be coming down (to carry on with the type of sporting metaphor that has also proliferated in this political frame), are ports and pipelines the best we can hope for from this inflection point?How might such projects, or other infrastructure, further longterm national efforts to become more than an extractor of raw materials, and to advance towards justice for Indigenous Peoples, among others?
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 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.
