The Adult Entertainment Association of Canada is proposing an alternative Canadian model for prostitution to the Conservative government’s recently proposed Bill C-36, which criminalizes the purchase of sex.

In fact, in Europe before WW2 legal brothels often shared quarters with nice restaurants and other businesses and nobody seemed to have a problem with it. Only after Europe was liberated by the puritanical forces from this side of the ocean did they begin to first segregate and then prohibit sex commerce from other forms of entertainment.

In this aspect of society, what we’ve seen is the opposite of progress.
