| dc.description.abstract | The December 20, 2013 Supreme Court of Canada’s decision in Canada v. Bedford (2013 SCC 72) struck down parts of Canada’s existing prostitution legislation. The Supreme Court of Canada gave the federal government until December 2014 to redraft the criminal laws regarding prostitution that were deemed unconstitutional or to legalize prostitution. This report examines decisions and legislation regarding prostitution around the world, reviews media and scholarly articles on the topic, and advocates abolition of prostitution through rewriting the prostitution laws. | en_US |
