Sex worker wants sex-tourism boost

I was thrilled to see "Cute penguins have sex trade" by Guy Bennett, (March 12) and his suggestion to make Vancouver "The Whore Capital of Canada." I have been agitating for that for three years now. Just as Bennett suggests, making Vancouver a sex-tourism capital would solve economic ills as well as create safer workplaces and working conditions for people in the sex industry.

The Sex Workers Alliance of Vancouver has said for a long time that prostitution is not the problem, it's part of the solution. It is so nice to see that finally people are starting to get the message.
