Offence in Relation to Prostitution:
213. (1) Every person who in a public place or in any place open to public view
(a) stops or attempts to stop any motor vehicle,
(b) impedes the free flow of pedestrian or vehicular traffic or ingress to or egress from premises adjacent to that place, or
(c) stops or attempts to stop any person or in any manner communicates or attempts to communicate with any person
for the purpose of engaging in prostitution or of obtaining the sexual services of a prostitute is guilty of an offence punishable on summary conviction.
(2) In this section, ?public place? includes any place to which the public have access as of right or by invitation, express or implied, and any motor vehicle located in a public place or in any place open to public view.
That's directly out of the criminal code.
Further, it is criminal to maintain a "?common bawdy-house?.
This is defined as: a place that is (a) kept or occupied, or (b) resorted to by one or more persons for the purpose of prostitution or the practice of acts of indecency;
The problem here (for SP's) could potentially be incall locations. If you commonly rent a room, this can technically be considered a bawdy house if it is the same location. Likewise with houses/apartments.
Personally, I think the best way around this is to spice up the locations a little. If you insist on incalls (and I can understand why many of you would feel the need to), vary the locations. Sticking with one room can be dangerous, and it's not like the costs will differ drastically from place to place (hopefully).
Anyways, just thought I'd help.
While I won't claim to be the resident lawyer, I have 1 year left of law school!
Funny how I'm already spending my hard earned money on SP's!
Keep up the good work ladies!
