Upholding the Haudenosaunee Great Law of Peace or defying Canada's rule of law?: An examination of English-Canadian newspaper depictions of the April 20th, 2006 police raid of a reclamation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This thesis examines English- Canadian newspaper depictions of a police raid of the Haudenosaunee Reclamation Movement that was successfully thwarted by the latter. The movement is comprised of members of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy of the Grand River seeking to reclaim Kanonhstaton, a tract of land among many in southern Ontario that has been unlawfully dispossessed from the Confederacy. Although the movement is a political one, English- Canadian newspapers depicted it as criminal in nature thereby justifying the failed raid. It can be shown that said newspapers constructed a criminalized portrait of the movement through the use of repetition of similar words with negative connotations so as to create emphasis, or a preferred reading of the movement as criminals, while strategically silencing the important context of the movement' s motivation for action. Arguing that these preferred readings and strategic silences are ideological attempts to justify acts of coercive violence by the Canadian state, this work suggests that left unchecked and unchallenged they will only serve to strengthen the system of colonialism in Canada.

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.
