Canada's Future in the Indo-Pacific: The Need for Strategic Policy
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Indo-Pacific region is home to some of the largest populations and fastest growing economies in the world. It is a region critical to global supply chains, as it hosts major ports and sea routes through which goods to countries around the world, including Canada, pass through daily. At the same time, it is a region in which a multitude of security challenges threaten to upend regional stability and erode the international rules and norms upon which Canada relies. Despite Canada's critical economic and security interests in the Indo-Pacific, it does not yet have a policy that articulates these interests, identifies key challenges, and sets out goals for the region in order to establish a long-term strategic vision behind its engagement there. This capstone will demonstrate the need for a comprehensive policy for the region by conducting a critical analysis of the opinions of experts and examining the strategies of like-minded countries before ultimately providing recommendations on what economic, diplomatic, and security priorities should be included in an Indo-Pacific policy.

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.
