A progressive society would stop putting so much pressure to conform to social ideals on its members. It's no more wrong to pay for sex then it is to have sex...and unfortunately without sex workers...

Not only have Steven Harper's Tories and his anti sex worker colleagues been defeated, but Justin Treaudeau and his victorious Liberal Party are it seems committed to replacing the flawed C-36 law...

Just a couple of thoughts:


Just because it's been published, doesn't actually mean it'll get passed in a timely manner or even at all. There are a large amount of published bills that have been...

Good point. The Wolfenden Report concluded that “there must remain a realm of private morality and immorality which is...not the law’s business.”

No legislation should be passed without lobbyist figures being fully verified. This and so many other TORL 'facts' are simply fantasy stats with no basis in reality.
