Abstract
Mentoring programs that provide newcomers with information about Canadian work norms and culture have the potential to positively impact the integration of skilled immigrants into the Canadian lab our market. Past research on immigrant integration has highlighted the benefits immigrants receive from mentorship programs, such as support, empathy, encouragement, counseling and friendship, collegiality, and career satisfaction. Less is known about the benefits that mentors receive from these programs. This highlights a crucial gap in understanding the reciprocal benefits of mentorship and its impacts on mentors. This paper shares findings from a research study on “Facilitators and Barriers to Mentorship Programs for Newcomers to Canada” to highlight the benefits mentors gain in the form of social capital and, in doing so, to emphasize the need to decolonize existing mentorship programs and incorporate Indigenous values in mentorship practices. A decolonizing agenda is crucial to address historical and ongoing systemic inequities and to promote inclusive and equitable mentorship practices.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
