BookerL,

It's not a legal business so it's very likely any of these issues would ever be litigated in court. However, the test for what is an employee and what is an independent contractor is the same for any business- i.e., any business which is operating legally and freely litigating their disputes in court. Theoretically, if that body of law was applied to the escort industry, escorts who are controlled would be determined to be employees for purposes of worker's compensation. Of course, I have never heard of an escort collecting worker's compensation, and it's highly unlikely any escort agencies maintain such insurance, which is required by law by anyone employing one or more employees where I practice.

I am aware of the test ,I disputed one last year It is presently being appealed at Tax Court of Canada/Cour canadienne de l′impôt

Hello EagerBeaver and all

I do agree it is not a legal business and also agree with you example ,but I will paraphrase a Quebec honorable judge ,

In his ruling, Quebec Court Judge Armando Aznar noted that Catudal had once been a contractor for Revenue Quebec.

“How can the plaintiff seriously declare he didn’t believe revenue from illegal sources was taxable while at the same time affirming he couldn’t declare it for fear of being arrested or charged criminally?” the judge wrote.

Revenue from illegal sources are taxable by law in Quebec .


Different jurisdiction, different laws, different jurisprudences, different applications EagerBeaver
The fact that escorting agencies are illegal ,which we agree upon, did not prevent Revenue services to claim back taxes ,but never mentioned employees deductions owed by employer to the Government if its not revealing enough nothing will




Cheers

I have never seen an escort collecting for work's compensation, since it is illegal, sure every employer must register or if you are self employed you must insure yourself, I have seen once an exotic dancer asking for worker's compensation, fortunately the employer was paying is annual cotisation, but even if an employer would not be registered, the employee would still have the right to collect worker's compensation, and then the employer would have a fine and would have to pay back cotisations.
