Thank you.
I just want to reinforce what she was saying.
In some research actually conducted by sex workers, Dr. Christine Bruckert, a Ph.D. at uOttawa, specifically stated in her work that the majority of sex workers worked independently. She estimated that between 80% to 90% of sex workers in the sex industry in Canada work independently. They do not have someone telling them what to do or how much to make. They make independent decisions without the threat of force behind them.
Trafficking victims are not as lucky. They are under the control of their trafficker. Victims of trafficking know that there's often a physical and emotional price to pay if they don't bring home enough money, again driving home the fact that in trafficking there's also that third party controlling the actions of an individual. In the instance of sex work, the worker in question has the control and the fully informed choice of when to start, when to end and whom to engage in sexual activity with. Trafficking victims are not that lucky.
