Abstract
Canadian constitutional law is seldom criticised for its failure to live up to the ideal of the Rule of Law. This article argues that it should be so criticised. A number of widely accepted or uncontroversial Rule of Law requirements ― the need for general, stable, and prospective rules, the congruence between the "in the books" and the law "in action", and the availability of impartial, independent courts to adjudicate legal disputes ― are compromised by a number of ideas already accepted or increasingly advocated by Canadian lawyers, judges, and officials. \n \nThis article describes four of these ideas, to which it refers as "politicization techniques", because they transform what purports to be "the supreme law of Canada" into a set of malleable political commitments. These are, first, deference to legislatures or the application of a "margin of appreciation" and the "presumption of constitutionality" in constitutional adjudication; second, constitutional "dialogue" in which courts not merely defer, but actively give way to legislative decisions; the substitution of political for legal judgment through the application of the "notwithstanding clause" of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms; and the rewriting of constitutional law by the courts under the banner of "living tree" constitutional interpretation. \n \nThe article concludes with an appeal to those who profess commitment to the Rule of Law in relation to the Constitution not to embrace or endorse the means by which it is subverted.

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
