MONTREAL — Canada’s conservative government is rushing through Bill C36, which they hope to see passed as law by December 2014. Bill C36 violates the Supreme Court of Canada’s December 2013 decision, which deemed existing prostitution laws unconstitutional. We encourage politicians to integrate sex workers’ realities into workable and sustainable community based solutions, rather than proceed with measures which segregate and displace us.

Those present will offer perspectives on the harmful impacts of Bill C36 on female, trans and male sex workers in the sex industry.
