I saw a blurb for this on CTV today and thought people might find it interesting. There's a video preview on the CTV site here: http://montreal.ctv.ca/servlet/an/l...mtl_parlour_111023/20111023/?hub=MontrealHome
Massage parlours – who is working in them and why?
Caroline van Vlaardingen has a two-part special report airing Monday and Tuesday, where she investigates these modern-day brothels.
While technically it's illegal to solicit for sex in Canada, prostitution is it going on in many of these massage parlours and are appear to be tolerant.
Caroline's investigation turned up a significant number of massage parlors in neighborhoods all over the island, with girls as young as 13 working in some of the establishments.
Caroline details how the girls and women are recruited into the trade, who frequents these establishments, and what are police – or anybody else - are doing about them.
Tune in to CTV Montreal Monday and Tuesday at 12 p.m. and 6 p.m. to watch this special report.
