Abstract
the business of Canada, sufficient to pay " the interest of cost of said works, to- li gether with the annual expenses of supervision " and maintenance."Mr. Mills also gives an ex- tract, in support of this work, from a Report to the Provin:ial Government in 1833, which states -"It is in the power of the Canadian Govern- " ment to say in what direction the people (of " the north west) shall go to market It is generally known am:ng commercial men in " North America,that the portion of the United" States called New England is rapidly becom-" ing a manufacturing country ; and I believe it " would be impossible now (in 1833) to estimate 11 the extent of commercial intercourse which u will take place between the We9t and New " England, as all estimates of the advancement "and productive power of the north-western " States, even relating to periods and times al-" ready past, have proved themselves to be ridi- " culous failures."The Board of Trade, in April 1848, asked the Government for copies of the Report and plans as made by Mr. Mills, "for the construction of a " canal from the St. Lawrence into Lake Cham-" plain, in the neighbourhood of Caughnawaga."In July, 1848, a valuable memorial was presented to the Government, which so fully set forth the great objects of the work, and is so clear in it3 statements, that, emanating, as it does, from a gentleman so universally esteemed in this city and throughout Canada, it cannot fail to be of interest to the public : -

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.
