25 F oucault Michel, Des espaces autres conférence au Cercle détudes architecturales, 14 mars 196 est considérée comme une retombée possible de la VIJ. I am the member of Parliament for a riding located in eastern Montreal, near the Olympic Stadium. In listening to your presentation, I had the impression that you were describing the situation that we are dealing with in my area. In my opinion, our challenge is to decriminalize prostitution while trying to strike a balance between the safety of people working in the sex tradewithout casting any moral judgment on themand the right of citizens to live in peace. People should not have to witness the scenes that you described. That, and rightly so, is part of the whole issue of quality of life and striving for this quality of life is certainly not asking the impossible. Ill close by saying that I think your responsibility is to ensure that no more women enter the slavery of prostitution. You can do that by creating legislation that works to eradicate pimps, johns, and the conditions that rob women of choice through enforced poverty, racism, and inequality, and that leaves us with no good alternative to prostitution. The pro-prostitution side has tried to convince us that prostitution is inevitable, that its the worlds oldest profession, and that its naive for us to expect abolition is possible. However, Im going to point out that in the American fight about slavery of black people, there was an ongoing debate about whether to abolish slavery or to reform slavery. I think were at the same crossroads about prostitution. Will our Canadian laws and lawmakers reform the slavery of prostitution so that its more palatable yet keeps women in the constant danger of prostitution, or will you move more bravely toward a vision of Canada and the world where 52 of the population gets to enjoy equality and freedom along with men? 3 3 upvotes, Mark this document as useful 0 0 downvotes, Mark this document as not useful Id first like to say Ive read through all the transcripts of the hearings up to date and I dont envy you the difficult task of sorting through that at times somewhat contradictory evidence. Im just going to give you a brief outline of how I got involved with this issue in my own neighbourhood.

ASKEW, M. 1998 City of women, city of foreign men: Working spaces and re-working identities among female sex workers in Bangkoks tourist zone, Singapore Journal of Tropical Geography vol. 19 no. 2, p 130-150. Depuis le 20 mai dernier on constate une présence policière accrue dans les rues de Belleville où les prostituées sont le plus présentes : contrôles de papiers permanents, photos de leurs visages, menaces dexpulsion, entre autres. We also recognized that the people and groups at the table needed to put aside their biases if we were going to come together and have any real impact on sex work and its effect on sex workers and communities. We finally put a proposal forward to the Vancouver Agreement for a project to look at current research and best practices throughout Vancouver, Canada, and other countries. This information will be presented to, and public response gathered from, all communities within the city of Vancouver, and a report of resulting recommendations would be produced, similar to the process that led to the four pillars drug strategy Ms. Ann Pollak: The women get charged, go to court, and then dont show up for their court date, so they get arrested on a bench warrant. They get let out again. What starts off as a small crime, what we might think of as a petty crime, ends up in a significant jail sentence. To what end for the woman, for the sex worker? For those having embraced C PS D, diversion programs f o r youth and family violence programs are quite common..
