On Monday, we had the lovely and beautiful Air Force Amy on the show and touched on the differences between legal and non-legal sex work, which motivated me to take a deeper look at Canadian s-x work laws.
And although s-x work is “technically” legal in Canada, it seems almost everything to make s-x work safe and secure is illegal.
In this episode, I will be breaking down…
- How the 2013 Bedford versus Canada case proved infringements on the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms
- What happened in 2014
- And how the most recent decision on September 18th, 2023, is holding Canada back
Listen now to see why Canada isn’t as progressive as you think when it comes to s-x.
