According to the report, they did not come here against their will. This is called smuggling, helping an immigrant to get here illegally. The RCMP claims that once they were here they were made to work in exploitive conditions. But they knew in advance that they were coming here for sex work...

A special rate is always a strong factor to incite me to choose someone. But I will never bargain to get a special if it's not offered by the lady. This is a very intimate service and it's up to the provider to set her price and limits.

Sadly I think it will be the opposite. Asian sex workers immigrants are doubly stigmatized because people think they are more likely to be illegal or trafficked or exploited. I suppose serious agencies are less likely to hire recent immigrants (women on visas can't even legally work at a strip...

They don't even lay charges for the smuggling part, only for the prostitution offense. Why is that?

They apply it according to their reality, not to the federal government's fantasy. Prostitution laws are among the least enforced. I would bet anything the feds know this kind of law doesn't work. It's just to ''send a message''.

Like I said, getting an arrest can be easy, but then the the law gets challenged and very likely destroyed. The best way to keep the law effective is not to lay charges. The threat of possible charges is enough to achieve the goal of the government, without actually risking a challenge of the...

''Les hommes derrière!'', genre en levrette?

A major difference is social mentality, I think. Higher prices are just a consequence of that in my opinion. Sex is more taboo, so it's ''worth'' more. There's still a very puritan streak in the US when it comes to sex (and drink and gambling, etc). Our Federal government leans toward the US...

Because, of course, men are not affected by food shortage and famine (or even by their own death according to Hilary Clinton). ''Women have always been the primary victims of war. Women lose their husbands, their fathers, their sons in combat...Women are often left with the responsibility...

Child pornography and terrorism are very big crimes in and of themselves. There's nothing wrong in theory with blocking those on the internet. The problem is how does that affect other liberties. In France, prostitution is not itself a crime. Therefore blocking prostitution advertisement sites...

The bill is trying to turn sex workers into victims. And that's exactly what it will do...

Don't forget that people talk with a lot of rhetoric on both sides. Pivot and Stella are advocating for sex workers, therefore they are likely to adopt a worse-case-scenario interpretation. Their goal at the time was to show how bad and broad the law could be. They don't lie like...

I'm pretty sure the article was posted a while ago, but here is the link about NOW. https://nowtoronto.com/news/now-statement-on-canada%27s-new-anti-prostitution-laws/ The law is really totally open to interpretation. It's good for the cops because they can in theory arrest anyone for just...

Minimum sentencing would be another example that has important consequences for prosecution, (although it has the opposite effect of giving almost all the power to the prosecutor). There is no way to know what is legal until a judge actually makes a decision on a case. The legal advice that...

My understanding is that stripping itself will not be illegal. It will be just illegal to do it in a place that serves alcohol. How does that address any ''traficking'' issue? Is it the presence of alcohol that attracts crime and traffickers?

The 50% reduction is at the street levels only and is more likely due to the rise of the internet than any change in the law. Meanwhile the number of massage parlors in Stockholm increased by something like three-fold. The effects of the Swedish law has been discussed so much already that there...

Anybody familiar with strip clubs know how they are doing in Montreal? It's true that with the internet it's now much easier to either see free striptease videos or to find affordable providers of real sex. Strip clubs closing due to lack of demand across Canada, says industry insider...

Like Patron said. You might just as well ask the reverse question. Why play games in bars when you can pay a fixed amount and save all the trouble? Plus there are no reviews and advertisement for the people you meet in bars, and no idea how it's going to be.

So what? Is the police going to start interrogating everyone who doesn't fit the stereotype of a ''real couple on a date''? They would quickly get in a lot of trouble because I know plenty of mismatched couples. And it's not even a crime to pay an escort for a dinner (and to bring her back to...
