The article examines the issues surrounding the introduction of sex work laws in Canada. Topics discussed include the decision of the Supreme Court to declare prostitution laws introduced in 2013 as unconstitutional and the recognition that criminal laws against prostitution add to the harm committed against sex workers. The prevailing perception that sex work is a social ill and the entitlement of sex workers to labor rights are mentioned.
