drlove 37204 Report post Posted February 17, 2018 Does anyone know if the constitutional challenge presented here applies to C-36 in its entirety, or specifically to the advertising / material benefit provisions? Furthermore, if these provisions are found unconstitutional, will the rest of the law stand, or be declared unconstitutional by default? e.g ( the entire premise of sexual services being legal to sell, yet illegal to purchase) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Surnow 1052 Report post Posted May 2, 2019 https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/london/sex-trade-charter-of-human-rights-charter-challenge-1.5108982 There is an update here. In the closing arguments, the crown prosecutor admitted that C-36 was not intended to protect the safety of sex workers, which the Bedford v. Canada ruling required any new law to do. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drlove 37204 Report post Posted September 29, 2019 Have there been any recent updates as to when the Judge will render his decision? I’ve heard it will likely come this fall, but couldn’t find any new info to back this up... anyone? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted September 29, 2019 No matter the decision, expect this case to end up in Supreme Court before a final verdict. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
