That's how I understand it as well.Prostitution is legal!! You can take money for sex!!
What is illegal...is 'Soliciting in a Public Place'........
And being in or found in a bawdy house is illegal as well!
As I said above . . .Wasn't there a charter challenge to the "living off of avails" and "bawdy house" laws a few months back? What ever happened with that?
So far, the ongoing court challenge hasn't changed the situation. The law stands as-is, pending the Crown's appeal. We have no idea how or when this will be finally resolved.
That's my point. Subtle, but important, difference between decriminalized (not illegal) vs. legal.There isn't a clear statement of what acts and actions are legal.
The law tends to deal with the inverse - defining what is illegal.
