Ontario's Supreme Court yesterday legalized brothels. (Up for appeal). Should Manitoba follow? Personally I prefer the company of a "semi-legal" SP. Your thoughts?
First off, Ontario's ruling has no bearing on Manitoba. At this point the ruling in Ontario applies to only Ontario.
This is definitely going to go all the way to the Supreme Court of Canada. It just has to go through all of the lower courts first.
Once the Supreme Court of Canada rules, then that ruling would apply to the entire country.
I wouldn't be getting my hopes up yet because this fight is not over yet and in the end the Conservatives could use their majority to rewrite the law to make brothels illegal. I hope like hell they don't but you never know. Between Bill C-30 and this, I might have to tear up my CPC membership card.
The ruling simply strikes down the law that makes it illegal to operate or be in a a bawdy-house. The converse isn't true. It doesn't legalize them. You can only legally operate a brothel if the municipality or city in which it's located will grant a license to operate it. Until cities issue such licenses, it will still be illegal to run a brothel, although many cities turn a blind-eye to what's happening in licensed body-rub parlours. There is, though, one legal brothel in Vancouver. The license was granted over 40 years ago and the city has been trying to shut it down ever since. However, the owner isn't in contravention of any bylaws, so the place is still around.Ontario's Supreme Court yesterday legalized brothels. (Up for appeal). Should Manitoba follow?

Was it Jenny Gerbasi???One of our City councilman was on the radio today and stated that he would vote "Yes" to legalize a brothel in the City of Winnipeg

Shudder... no thanks...It would be very interesting for a First Nations Community close to Winnipeg as a way to exert their sovereignty, to open a brothel.
Maybe someone should call Terry Nelson.
I know but I just have a problem with alligning myself with political parties who would rather control every aspect of our lives and spend like drunken sailors on shore leave with little or no regard for the fact they are saddling us with unimaginable debt.What was wrong with your head, joining that pack of control freaks and neanderthals
I know your not saying this but you comment got me thinking. Could you imagine if the government ran brothels like they run MPI or MLCC and the ladies became unionized government employees.:doh:Unfortunately it will add to the bearaucrcy , and with it some real stupid government rules, but in all likely hood , will give more women a safe place to work , and give men a place to go , with no risk of being caught/charged with being in a bawdy house.
