swat.ca? Sex Workers Alliance Toronto? Anastasia Kyuzik? After meeting you and the way you treated my friend, I wouldn't beleive you if you told me the Earth was round.

As a sex trade worker I find it horrible that another sex trade worker organization would smear one like you have. If they are guilty then they should be held accountable, but you are just posing personal attacks (which by the way, I have come to see that you have a knack for). 

Do you care about sex trade workers and us being able to have legalization, or do you just want to carry out your drama on line?]]>

Allow them to set up in their own homes, whatever neighbourhood it is. Even better if they have a partner so they can look out for each other.Let's just regulate the size of the operation and have checks to make sure minors or drugs aren't involved.]]>

I think it's shameful that we have better regulation for dogs than we do for sex workers -- actual people who provide a service. In addition to making the environment safer for both the worker and the client, there's also a lot of money changing hands that doesn't get taxed by the government. Yes, income tax, sales tax -- there I said it.]]>

Australia is considerably further progressed in this area.  Scarlett Alliance produced a best practice guide for occupational health and safety in the sex industry several years ago.  WorkCover New South Wales produced a government guide for OHS in brothels.  WorkCover also funded OHS training for sex workers throughout the state and a training video.  Queensland has the world's first brothel that has achieved compliance with international standards for OHS management.  I have advised around a dozen brothels in Victoria on their OHS needs and compliance issues.Streetwork is a radically different safety prospect but I think Australia leads on workplace safety in brothels]]>

There are males, "hustlers" in the sex trade who do not have rights  just as much as their female counterparts, do not equate my rights to that of patriarchy, I've worked the same corners, the same streets, and have the same fear as my female counterparts, we ALL have no rights, we are arrested at the same rate as females.................however the females plight of "hooking" is told on a much larger scale in the media......that is why I am assuming Feldwebel Wolfenstool, that you are unaware of males working the trade as well, it's the silent pandemic......I invite you to take a stroll down Grosvener St sometime.........in closing to whomever it may concern keep your laws off of my body.]]>
