Why does there need to be a heated debate about this topic when we all know IT IS REAL. Have we all forgotten about "The Natashas"? Have we all forgotten about the "Children Sold As Sex Slaves"?

It does NOT happen all over the world. Read the articles and read the books. It's happening in war ravished countries where their economy is destroyed.
I was dating a man 4 years ago that moved here from Romania and was living with a family member. I asked him one day "How do you make your money when you don't have a job?" he looked at me with a stern look and a stern voice and said "Never ask me again about my money and my business" That suddenly left me with a very bad feeling in my gut that a week later I ended the relationship. We remained friends (a few phone calls a year, a coffee or 2) and then about a 1+ year ago he called me and said we need to meet up and talk so we did. He said to me that the Romanian government had seized all his families assets and money and I thought to myself, 'Why would they do that'? so I asked him and after pressuring him over and over again that he's not telling me the whole story because it doesn't make sense that the government would just come along and seize his families assets he pretty much told me (in a few word) what he was doing and I realized that he was in the sex trafficking business. I was very shocked to say the least, that thought had never crossed my mind. I thought he was into selling or trafficing drugs but never sex trafficking. He say the hurt look on my face and said "How could I tell you when I knew you were an escort? (I don't date much being in this business) but if I do I lay my cards on the table and if the man can deal with it then great, and if not that's fine too. I don't believe in lying and putting a man in a situation where I have to lie about my life. Life is complicated and difficult enough at times to add more to it.
_______________________________________________
I found the movie very powerful, very shocking and very compelling and it made me feel so much hurt and pain for these women but more then that so damn frustrated because what can I do to stop this? what can we do to stop this? The scene of Elena making a run for it by escaping from the brothel house and the man chasing her down the street and beating her to a pulp... The scene where Elena is safe in the woman's shelter and one of the women get a package and inside of it is the hand of her baby
... The scene where Elena is staying with the journalist and she goes to take a shower and the man sees all the bruises and marks all over her body and he begins to weep (so did I) and the scene where Elena is finally reunited with her son (that tore me up inside so much that I was tearing apart the kleenex box)I hope they will release it for sale at some point because I will buy a copy of it. My rating is an A for this movie.

I would agree with you Annessa, it was a "A" movie! It was good of the cbc to air it. for those who missed it:

I watched the film with a fellow terby and we felt quite the same.
Except that we came up with few unsavoury ideas on how to stop this sort of thing from happening; I don't think the LE would kick up to much of a fuss if these undesirables were to disappear.Anyway short of that I feel morally obligated to not be part of the demand that keeps this ugly wheel turning.
I'm sure that we have discussed this before, however I would still like to emplore everyone to not (knowingly of course) indulge in services purveyed by these animals.
I saw part one but missed the second episode because I was having Thanksgiving dinner and forgot to set my vcr. Anyone know if it's going to air again anytime soon?
I think people should take 30 seconds and send an email to CBC supporting their decision to air the movie. I'm sure they will be getting complaints over the graphic content and nudity. Simply go to the CBC.ca webpage to send a comment. It will take 30 seconds of your time.

I was referring to the TERBites who claim to know about the EE situation in Toronto; how they got here? are they enslaved? what freedoms do they have? how much do they have to repay? etc.Annessa said:
Have you their posts Annessa?
btw, once in awhile I kept thinking that Appleton was buckminster (sorry).
I'm going to nitpick too.
Annessa,
ToronToto just made an "observation" that there isn't a debate. He did not say there "needed" to be one. Give him a break. Yes, we all know "IT IS REAL" that's why there's this code of silence.
Now for me: I said "it happens in all parts of the world" AND you said, "It does NOT happen all over the world". You are misquoting me and changing the context of my statement. My statement is NOT the same as yours. Please allow me to clarify. Now break up the world into parts. This part, that part, this part, that part. Then one can say, it happens in this part of the world, and that part of the world, and this part of the world, and that part of the world, etc. Get it? Therefore, my statement is still correct!!
AND I DID NOT SAY all countries around the world.

Does anyone know if this happens in Italy and/or Japan? I'm refering to the EE's in particular. Just trying to solve something that's been puzzling me.
I was told that they don't actually dance in Italy or Japan. There's a bar, and guys come in and pay to talk to the girls. Then she said that they make arrangments to go somewhere else (insert long pause here) like dinner or dancing. I took all this at face value at the time, but after watching the flick.........I dunno.
I don't think the Japanese like russians, bad history btw countries. I am sure a few go there.
Many EE go to Korea...

Australian laws on immigration and working visas are a lot tougher for the traffickers to deal with, and probably because the low population of the country doesn't make it lucrative enough for the traffickers to bother. It's out of the way relative to their other major markets
Annessa,
with all my respect, you're lacking some geography lessons.
not to mention that you know something but not all about EE's.
