Ms. Mourani's bill builds on what already exists to address human trafficking. As we mentioned during our presentation, oftentimes, this involves a progression. After working so many years with domestic workers, I do know that, in many cases, these migrant workers have had to prostitute themselves before coming to Canada.
In Canada, they are exploited doing domestic work, but that might be the least of what they've suffered in the course of their experience. Frequently, it's the same agency they dealt with in the Philippines, Hong Kong, Paris and Montreal. Having a piece of legislation that makes it possible to separate the two situations while addressing both is a positive addition.
