„Canada meets France“: Recasting identities of Canadianess and Francité through global economic exchanges
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this chapter I will take up the idea of motion and flow as prominent features of our time and look at their role in creating news forms of language contact and identity through global economic exchanges. My argument relates to studies on economic globalisation (Coe & Yeung 2001), in which the term ‘economic’ is not understood as a form of industrial organisation, but as part of social processes that include language contact and socio-cultural practices (Appadurai 2000). The chapter looks at global flows of goods and people and explores specific moments in which their trajectories cross. The specific focus is on goods and people from Canadian origin who meet in locally distant France where Canadian products are sold on fairs and Christmas markets. This encounter of sells people from French Canada and local French clients entails identity building that is centred around products, local cultures, local language accents and categories of ethnic and national belonging.

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.
