Motion to legalize prostitution pulled from Liberal conveniton

Recommended Posts

This is actually old news, I read it a couple weeks ago. I think the Conservatives would roast Justin Trudeau over the coals if he argued in favour of legalization or against the Nordic Model. No party wants to be known as the prostitution party (I got that from an article by Neil MacDonald).

 

This is one of the most important topics of 2014, and for The Liberals to not say anything about it IS avoiding a hot topic.

Well, it gives us one more name to contact to educate: B.C. delegate Don MacDonald. Who is he? I just did a google search for him to find contact info, and can't find anything on him. Can anyone direct me?

You may have read the article wrong. Don MacDonald is pro-decriminalization. And he is not in any sort of major position of political power. He is just a BC liberal delegate, likely a political activist, and he is somehow tied to the Young Liberals, who are a youth wing of the Liberal Party and a progressive political organization. They are pro-decriminalization and support sex-workers rights: http://ylc-jlc.liberal.ca/2013/12/16/protecting-rights-sex-trade-workers/. Don MacD is all good. :)

 

The Young Liberals said they decided that they weren't ready to present the motion at the Liberal Convention, but it's probably pretty likely that instead, it was the mainstream mofos in the Liberal Party who said no. Too "controversial" for them.

 

You should write Justin Trudeau instead of Don Macdonald. A few weeks ago he said "prostitution itself is a form of violence against women." :aggressif025:
