Exactly. That is a no-brainer. Then they want to educate, counsel, and moralize a poor horny guy who just wants to spend time with a service provider with his hard earned money. I'm not sure if you read the article about the guy who came with flowers and a bottle of wine, then got arrested . There is absolutely no respect for the citizens of Quebec. Whoever approved that operation should be ashamed of themselves.
Perhaps I exaggerated a little. Hahahaha
Good point. Anti-prostitution campaigns ramp up every year a week or two before the F1 Grand Prix.
).When I read "John School" my brain first registered it as "John Molson School". You know, Concordia's John Molson School of Business.
Part of me would actually like to participate in this "John School" volontary. I would like to see what they have to present. Of course there is a dark side of this business and i think everyone here knows it. I think the string operation also probably target more the kind of guys who are a little more "shady" considering the type of ads they use, altough obviously not all of them are. They use the worst cases and try to demonize the business completely. I may not be an escort myself but i know for a fact there is an ethical side of being in this business.
It is not what I see.... What I see is they are infantilizing the sex workers but making the clients look bad. They make the clients appear as the predators.
You forgot to mention feminists and that website you posted is a feminist website. The biggest pushers for banning sex work are the feminists and the way they go about it is very clear that it is coming from them, the clients are the predators and the sex workers poor girls being trafficked or doing it because they got no choice.
It is all about getting votes. It is a charade to show to the world that they are doing something.The real pressure to "do something" comes from organizations like CLES. They get much of their funding from the Quebec government (your tax dollars at work!).
CLES launches a PR campaign around the time of the GP because the myth of a huge upsurge in prostitution during GP is a myth that refuses to die. Ordinary citizens believe the myth, police believe it, the government believes it, the media believe it and CLES takes advantage of the surrounding hysteria to justify its existence and get funding from the government. As Emily says, it happens every year.
Imagine is they put as much energy and time in busting the real criminals...If you read the article, you will learn that this operation took place months ago and yet we are just reading about it now, one week before the race. Wow, it sure took a long time to write that article!
Nevertheless, it is disturbing that local (Longueuil) police would launch such a large scale entrapment scheme. I don't remember something like this happening before. Thankfully for the unlucky guys who got trapped, they could avoid charges by paying a fine and going to a class led by a fanatical feminist preacher (I might choose jail over that
I meant SW as "Sex Work", not Sex Workers. Sorry for the confusion. Edited it.
Ahh okay... Got it! Makes more sense now. Ahh the stigma will never go away thanks to the government.
That is right on the nail!
Yep... Et c'est plate à dire, mais notre Gouverne Ment, en ce moment, fait absolument tout pour appauvrir volontairement la population, alors que les gens dorment encore devant leur écran, au lieu de s'attaquer aux vrais problèmes. Tout ça pour dire que nos amis policiers donneront leur démission ou choisiront de s'enfoncer plus profondément dans cette dictature qui s'installe et rendront la vie aux escortes et clients de plus en plus difficile...
Hear me right, I am incorporated and I declare 100% of my income to have access to propriety just in a few years
Of course but they will not. That is not their goal. Their goal is to appear as world class politicians in a World Class city. They want to appear as doing an amazing job using sex work as bait. And also like I said many times, most got the NIMBY.
Very funny they want to judge and educate us!
