Reservations concerning Bill 60: Human Rights Commission

The president of Quebec’s Human Rights Commission is urging that Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms not be weakened to allow the adoption of Bill 60. 

According to the Gazette, Jacques Fremont voiced the commission’s serious reservations concerning the so called values charter in Montreal on Friday.

Fremont argued that Bill 60’s major amendments to the Charter of Rights would place values above basic human rights like freedom of expression and religion.

He added that the bill is essentially unnecessary, as equality, secularism and neutrality are already established in the Charter of Rights.

Supreme Court to rule on prostitution laws

The Canadian Supreme Court will make its ruling on the country’s sex-trade Friday.

According to CTV, this comes 34 years after the courts have last upheld Canada’s anti-prostitution laws.

Last March however, Ontario ruled against an anti-brothel law, saying that forcing sex workers onto the streets was dangerous.

The decision also modified the law against living on the benefits of the trade to prevent exploitation and upheld the ban on soliciting for the purposes of prostitution.

The first two parts of the decision were appealed by both the federal and Ontario governments.
