This is nuts. It can't be a legally enforceable contract because it's only legal on one side of the transaction ( the provider's). No such agreement under Canada's current flawed statute amounts to a legal contract. That's the asinine stupidity of the "law" in Canada. The provider may have been awarded her money, but not on the basis of this being a legal contract.
I think this is a little unfair to ladies who ALSO get scammed by providing services and having men run out without paying like the lady you stated seeing. Unfortunately scamming people seems to be more common these days than in the past. Yes scammers have always been around but it seems more people are interested in quick easy scams than actually putting in time and effort with anything anymore. So instead of blaming the ladies that try to enforce paying upfront, maybe blame the assholes that expect to get services from a SP without paying them. Just a thought.
Or maybe also take into consideration women who have been assaulted by men who refuse to pay.. or men who claim to be clients just to assault or rob the woman. It happens more often than some of you may think.
Remember, in all situations, money only flows one way....to the women.
I am not saying anything other than the reality of times not so long ago, and how the current scammer situation is exacerbated by the whole pay upfront thing.
This can't be a legally enforceable contract, because statute law has defined the sale of sexual services as illegal on the buyer's side. So it's no contract at all. The court may have awarded money, but the award can't be predicated on the existence of a contract, because there is none.
I'm guessing that it's an illegal contract, but the law presumes that the girl is "exploited".
