I’ve pointed out before (see “Joel’s NewsQuips: Whores want federal whore-house”) how liberals and sundry leftists in Canada’s grand nutbar political scene think it would be a marvelous idea to (a) legalize prostitution (and pot-smoking) and to (b) open state-sponsored whore houses in Vancouver in time for the Olympics. I think this is part of their “Canadian values” and “principles” package! Or is it part of liberal-leftist Ontario premier Dalton McGuinty’s new “Family Day” promo?
Canada’s liberal-leftists just can’t find enough places to slap those ubiquitous Canada nanny-state (oh! oh! … this is such an excellent time to use the word teat !) symbols of state-sponsorship and reliance, the logo.
Anyway, Libby Davies and others in her you’ve got to be kidding party tribe will no doubt greet this news from Ottawa with indignant outrage and demands for a new national universal HOOKER IN EVERY BED (—and “early learning” —wink!) program. Possible election slogan idea: “Ejaculation for the nation! Vote ‘progressive’!”

The idea to legalize prostitution in Canada has some big-name supporters in Parliament. In 2005, the Liberal Party of Canada said that legalized prostitution was a priority on the convention agenda. A proposal to legalize prostitution was introduced as a private members bill by Vancouver East NDP Libby Davies. Liberal Senator Mac Harb, a long-time supporter of legalized prostitution, was quoted by the Toronto Sun saying, “It’s a great idea.” …
