“…The PCEPA also makes it illegal for workers to communicate their services in a public place next to a school ground, playground, or daycare center, having greater negative impact on more economically disadvantaged sex workers, including Indigenous and transgender sex workers, and those with problematic substance use (Benoit et al, 2009 ; Canadian Public Health Association, 2014 ; Krusi et al, 2012 ; Kunimoto, 2018 ; Lyons et al, 2017 ; Orchard, Farr, Macphail, Wender, & Young, 2012 ).

Finally, marginalization of sex workers as a group is evident by their high rates of assault and victimization compared to the general population (Bungay & Guta, 2018 ; Comack & Seshia, 2010 ; Deering et al, 2014 ; O'Doherty & Waters, 2019 ).…”
