GoddessHRC 8411 Report post Posted August 25, 2016 I'm going to keep this brief as I'm on the way to the gym... But a friend has informed me that they are doing an interview with sex workers (funded by the government) to ask about how the new law is impacting our lives!!! And they pay you $50 for your time. Please if you can find the time, participate. It's so important for workers everywhere...especially thise currently slipping between the cracks :( and just imagine what we could change if we were given more say in governing something the government clearly is lacking in direct knowledge about. I'm just waiting to find out the details on where to contact them. I'm literally so excited right now!!!!! 10 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brody Boivin 8445 Report post Posted August 25, 2016 I've actually read an article about this with an accompanying video. The interviewers are not so nice about it. If you are strong willed and know how to speak your mind with ignorant people, go on forward! I sure am prepared to be a part of this as I'm ready to break the stigma! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sweet Emily J 172062 Report post Posted August 25, 2016 From the details you have mentioned, it sounds like you are referring to POWER's research. There is a thread about the research here: http://www.lyla.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=758444#post758444 POWER is a sex worker led organization, that advocates for sex workers' rights. I have done some work with them in the past and they are good shit. I encourage those interested to participate. They are non-judgemental and your anonymity is assured.

Nathalie L 112512 Report post Posted September 2, 2016 I would encourage anyone who works in Ottawa to participate. This kind of research is so important, and POWER will use the research to advocate for sex workers' rights locally and at a national level. :) Thanks for sharing is Emily! 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
