Prostitution Now Legal In Canada

Canada's Supreme Court overturns anti-prostitution laws - Worcester Telegram & Gazette - telegram.com

OTTAWA — Canada's highest court struck down the country's anti-prostitution laws Friday, a victory for sex workers who had argued that a ban on brothels and other measures made their profession more dangerous. The ruling drew criticism from the conservative government and religious leaders.

The 9-0 Supreme Court ruling found that the laws violated the guarantee to life, liberty and security of the person. But the ruling won't take effect immediately because it gave Parliament one year to respond with new legislation.

Prostitution isn't illegal in Canada, but many activities associated with prostitution are classified as criminal offenses.

I used to bust my nut that much harder knowing it was illegal. At least the food still sucks.

...the food still sucks.

What are you talking about?

Watch the liberals fight this tooth and nail, despite the safety issues and "oppression of the poor sex workers." The feminist lobby will not stand for anything lowering the collective value of the sacred vaginas.

What are you talking about?

I know what I'm talking about. Food sucks. Can't make an argument for B.C., but for the most part, places I've been in eastern Canada...food sucks.

Wouldn't this be more of a conservative fight?

Nice side benefit though... due to national one payer healthcare, the hookers are less likely to be infected and if they are, so what, you can get help if your tallywhacker gets bent out of shape.

Perhaps the Inuits know what they're doing?

Canada: Come for the poontang, stay for the poutine.

Or maybe it should be the other way around.

Then you weren't eating in the right places. Canadian cities are pretty diverse multicultural places full of every kind of food you can imagine from all over the world. And yes, BC is pretty damn good.

Montréal is one of the top culinary destinations in North America. Toronto and Quebec City are also right up there. You've clearly been to shitty places. Do u even urbanspoon before you set foot in a restaurant?

Yay!

 

[Kiopa_Matt]

I don't know, I just thought it was kinda funny when he said Canadian food sucks, when there isn't really such a thing as "Canadian food". We're equal food lovers, we eat from all countries.

 

[Jizzlobber]

Guess I totally missed the mark on Canada as a culinary destination. However, what bothers me more is the lack of prostitute discussion in this thread...carry on.
