/* Youth Careers Canada — brand design system over KDS tokens. LIGHT theme only. Mobile first.
   Client-approved brand tokens (2026-09-25): deep navy + a warm orange-to-yellow rising accent + red +
   an ivory foundation. Warm energy, calm structure — navy stays the dominant strong colour, ivory is the
   primary page surface, orange/yellow/red are accents used sparingly. Inter is the sole typeface, used at
   every size (display down to labels). See docs on the journey component family (.jline / .jnode / .jstage)
   and the map token set below. */
