/* ════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
   Your First Vote in Canada — bespoke enhanced-article scope
   (.civic-article). Reusable across the whole "Your First Vote"
   civic series. Source design ("civic dawn" palette) ported verbatim,
   every rule re-scoped under .civic-article so it survives sanitize
   (no <style>/<link>/inline style="" and no on* handlers). The hero
   rules are kept (scoped, harmless) even though StormIt renders the
   post title/byline. The Iowan/Helvetica faces fall back per the
   font-family stacks. Components: lede drop-cap, fact-check box,
   generic callout / red-flag, province box, 5C framework, checklist,
   references, and the disclaimer.
