“Canada must respond by creating a permanent Canadian Wildfire Fighting Force: a highly trained, rapidly deployable national service capable of reinforcing any province or territory facing an emergency beyond its resources.” Read the piece

Only opinion columns and editorials are scored. Each piece is read twice by a language model, which records the author's own stance on a policy topic only where the piece argues one, with a quote that must appear in the piece. An author's position on a topic is the average of their pieces, weighted by the model's confidence. News reporting is listed but never scored.
