Dear Gordon:

Francoise Boivin, MP is on the hunt for a clarification from a Parliamentary Secretary in regards to a bill. The bill increases punishments for sex-trade workers, but also doesn't do enough to protect their rights from clients. Also, its shows disheartening the sex trade can be as many of the acts can be seen by students at nearby schools & thus influence those poor youngsters into trying these activities bIV they are ready, & the things that quite often go along with then. Eg: Alcohol, tobacco, & other substance abuses.

"I am not clear on how the Parliamentary Secretary To The Minister Of Justice interprets public places, so I would like him to clarify. For example, does he think that where Bill C-36 refers to an offense committed next to a school, that means only during school hours? Does this clause apply elsewhere in the bill to criminalize sex workers?"

Number XL (40),

Rory
