Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Eeyou Istchee is the ancestral home of the Cree Nation in Northern Quebec, and is changing rapidly due to extensive industrial development, including forestry, hydropower, and mining. Efforts are being made to offset the resulting damages to freshwater ecosystems via fish habitat compensation projects, after efforts are first made to avoid and minimize harm, with the goal of No Net Loss of fish habitat productivity. Currently, the success and relevance of Canadian fish habitat compensation projects is primarily assessed through scientific knowledge, while their success and relevance in Eeyou Istchee according to Cree Indigenous knowledge is currently unknown. We used Q-methodology to assess the perspectives of Cree land users regarding fish habitat compensation in Eeyou Istchee, to evaluate the need, success, and relevance of these projects, and provide recommendations for future fish habitat compensation projects within the region that consider the perspectives of Cree land users. Our findings express three main recommendations: (1) prioritization of local knowledge and governance, (2) effective remediation of water contamination, and (3) integration of the tallyman system with fish habitat compensation. Addressing these recommendations raised by Cree land users is likely to increase the success and relevance of fish habitat compensation projects in Eeyou Istchee.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
