The laws enacted back in 2014, billc36, are ridiculous and enacted in the guise that having done so will "protect" women and stop human trafficking....they do anything but. Hopefully this case  https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/london/london-ontario-charter-challenge-prostitution-laws-c-36-1.5103551  may bring some change. For those unfamiliar with what is and isn't legal involving prostitution is worth reading about and educating your self on. https://www.justice.gc.ca/eng/rp-pr/other-autre/c36faq/
