Bill C-36, the Protection of Communities and Exploited Persons Act!

[RubnTug]

With the passing of Bill C-36 , the ban on "Common Bawdy-Houses" is back under Bill C-36's The Protection of Communities and Exploited Persons Act, with the bawdy-house defined as "A place kept or occupied or resorted to by one or more persons, for the practice of acts of indecency!"

Doesn't this targets Massage parlours ? Sex workers most of the time share a separate address, or prefer to work in places like Massage parlours , so they can work together for mutual safety. Now, under Bill C-36, that's not a legal option! Now, if a sex worker keeps a separate address to work from, it's considered a Bawdy-house. So now by LAW, sex workers can only work from their homes.

As a Hand job is defined as a sexual service in Bill-36C, does this mean visiting a massage parlour, NOW amounts to visiting a Bawdy house and can lead to criminal prosecution against an individual??

Please, need your input to clarify this...

Thanks
