Good one...but I wonder if you haven't predicted the way services will be advertised in the future. Look at the old telephone boxes in the UK....didn't they offer things like "expert knob polishing" etc?
Bill C-36 tabled (New Prostitution Law)
- Thread starter DigitallyYours
- Start date
Uh huh...so why are you still here? It's over. The hobby is dead. Go home. When you get there, grab yourself a copy of the criminal code and take a look at the list of things one "could" go to jail/get a record for. After you make a little dookie in your shorts out of sheer terror, remember that can and do don't always meet in the middle
Complete aside, didn't mean to post twice. This shit ain't so easy on the phone with the daily midnight terb slowdown
This a bill made by the Harper government to discredit the Supreme Court of Canada and the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. This bill will eventually be challenged in the Supreme Court and it will be ruled in violation of the charter. If the Harper government is still in power they will use this as an example of majors changes that have to be made to the Supreme Court. Meanwhile we will all have to decide if we want to be pawns in the game.
On a side note, I do find it somewhat comical that the Conservatives received incredible support on this website previous to the last election. If you voted for them in the last election will you still vote for them despite them trying to abolish your hobby or trade?

It will not take 10 or 20 years. More like 3 or 4. And there's always the possibility that a new federal government would not appeal a successful challenge at a lower court level, and instead draft a law that has some hope of standing up to constitutional challenge. Until that happens though, police forces in Canada -- at least the most bloated, overstaffed ones like York Region -- will have free reign to enforce some of the most repressive anti-sex laws anywhere in the western world.
Dude, have you even read the legislation?

I wish I was wrong, but the government`s stated intent is to wipe the hobby out of existence, and they are trying pretty hard to do so by coming at it from supply and demand ends. Unless someone is willing to be a martyr for the cause, get charged under the new law, and take it to the SCC at their own expense, things do not look so good right now for us.
I'll give you that one; my days at 7 and Leslie are over until I see the lay of the land.
Are you kidding? Do you understand what a majority govt is? Bill will be passed before Parliament goes on summer break
Have you ever read another piece of legislation? I have as it happens...theory and practice are rarely intimate with one another. Stated intent? Really? What was he supposed to say? Of course that`s the stated intent.
Btw, not like this shit was legal last year...
Anyway, the scared will be scared, the angry will be angry, I can`t see anyone changing their mind simply because I was gracious enough to drop some knowledge and practical thought process up in here. We`ll see how bad, or not, this gets soon enough
No guarantee this will happen. What if Harper adds a couple more social conservative or feminist types to the bench in those years? Yes, many supported the Conservatives, however everything I have heard from young Trudeau on this issue would indicate that if he were in power things right now would be not much different - "In French, Trudeau went further, saying it's important to recognize that "prostitution itself is a form of violence against women." ( http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/jus...oposal-to-regulate-tax-prostitution-1.2500357 )
The sad truth is, we have no friends in any political party.
Correct me if I am wrong but didn't the first Bill got struck down by the SCC and the SCC told the Harper Gov to come up a new one for them to review?
No, they said the govt, need to replace current laws as they would be invalid in 1 year.
October 19, 2015, circle that date. The next federal election and it our chance to make the conservatives pay the ultimate price for this shit show.
Because unfortunately, the other parties with their feminist influences would be no better for us.
Good point but young Trudeau is unlikely to challenge the Charter rulings. He is the one who said he welcomes mp's to voice opinions except on Charter issues where the Liberals should all be united on.
I admire your optimism, and truly hope you are correct.
For me, once this legislation is passed into law I will be retiring.
