Â鶹AV expert:ÌýAngela Campbell, Faculty of Law
Story:ÌýThe Conservative government's controversial anti-prostitution bill passed third reading in the Senate on Tuesday and requires only royal assent to become law. The government had wanted to get the Bill C-36 through the legislative process by the middle of this month, so it could become law by December. That would meet the deadline imposed by the Supreme Court of Canada when it struck down existing laws as unconstitutional last year.
