EagerBeaver>> Of course they are runaways... the point I was getting at is that if more money was funneled into social support systems for youth, less would end up in this predicament.

"Mistake of age
(4) It is not a defence to a charge under section 151 or 152, subsection 160(3) or 173(2), or section 271, 272 or 273 that the accused believed that the complainant was fourteen years of age or more at the time the offence is alleged to have been committed unless the accused took all reasonable steps to ascertain the age of the complainant."
Now I'm not a lawyer but from what I undersatnd from reading this, if the girl looks 18 and she shows you ID that say's she is 18 I think that is reasonable steps in determining her age. I don't see what else you can do. Here is the link if anyone here wants to take a closer look.

There is no national i.d. card in canada.
So taking all reasonable steps in verifying age of a future sp (when age is in doubt) would include:
1) asking for driver's license (picture and date of birth)
2) asking for ''La carte Soleil'' where age and picture show.
3) asking for ''University registration'' where date of birth appears.
4) asking for valid Canadian passport.
5)asking for a costco card (picture included)
6)asking for social security card (to compare with income tax report)
7) asking for last year income tax report (Quebec or Ottawa) would show
date of birth and social secutity.
These 7 steps could be enough for an agency owner, to make sure he took ''all reasonable steps'' in verifying if the girl is underaged or not.
I am sure, the list can go on and on.
Underaged escorting, where violence and constraint is present, will get
the ''pimps'' directly to jail.
